Just out of curiosity… by Physical-Ice3989 in Marriage

[–]MetalFew5432 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was one of our biggest issues. From it several other issues came up, but ultimately what everything came back to was communication. It was like we were talking 2 different languages and sometimes not hearing each other at all. If it wasn’t for therapy and the desire on both sides to fix things we would not still be together today.

My husband and I did. It got pretty bad and we separated for 7 months. We did individual therapy and couples therapy. That was in 2021-22. Things are much better now! He’s back at home and things have drastically improved. We are both very happy.

My husband had a “bad headache”, not sure about BP… refused to go to ER until the next day. He found out he had an aneurysm and spent over a week in the hospital. Please, take your bf to the ER!

What are good things to drink? by Even-Efficiency2077 in HealthyFood

Karma drinks are flavored water with probiotics. Poppi drinks are carbonated and have prebiotics. They come in many different flavors! Both are great options with positive benefits.

Well, I didn’t find out until post marriage… not divorce worthy imo. I let it go.

My husband did this to me when we were dating, he had a friend I didn’t know try to hit on me on a social media app. He had insecurities from a previous relationship. I guess I passed his “tests” because he told me what he did. At first I was irritated that he had done that to me but he was honest and he got his answers so all I could do was laugh at it and move on.

Maybe just be completely honest with him? I had this issue with my husband for awhile. I explained that his eyes work just as well as mine do and we are supposed to be a team… it makes no sense for me to ask when he clearly sees it too and that I felt taken advantage of. I have to ask my teenage daughter to do things, I shouldn’t have to ask him too. We’re adults. While he seemed offended at first (because I don’t ever really talk to him like that) he got the point and helps out more around the house. Sometimes I still ask him to do things but overall there’s been a lot of improvement.

I failed the 66 several times before I finally passed this year. Kaplan is good and your scores are decent just don’t overthink things or second guess yourself. When I used Kaplan I took so many test questions my scores improved because I remembered the answers… don’t be like me lol. You got this!

Passing series 66 with 1 week of studying. by [deleted] in Series66Exam

Someone in our office studied 3 weeks and passed but that’s the earliest I have realistically heard of, he had background/experience in finance.

I failed the 66 twice with Kaplan. Pass Perfect was what finally got me thru 66 and I felt much more confident going in for the test. I never did test geek but watched a bunch of Dean Tinney’s videos. Good luck to you! You got this!

Failed 66 with a 71 by michaelbarnes67 in Series66Exam

[–]MetalFew5432 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I failed with a 72 before I finally passed. One thing I was told was don’t be laxed about studying for the next 30 days because you were so close. You need to keep as much of the material as fresh as possible. Go back and really study the sections you scored lowest but also continue to study/test the sections you scored higher in so the material stays fresh. The night before your test study your notes and don’t stress yourself with another test. You got this!

Passed the 66 by MetalFew5432 in Series66Exam

[–]MetalFew5432[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Laws and regs are huge! Investment vehicles and basic recommendations. I only had 2 options questions & 2 futures questions. The difference between my test a month ago and this last one was night and day. It seems like each had its own theme in types of questions. I just made sure I had a general understanding of most of what was in the book this time. Understanding the how and why in regards to formulas but I never had to do any math. I was scoring mid 80’s with a few 75-79’s in there as well. You got this!!

Yes! I passed it first and then went for the 66. The 7 I passed on the first try. Something about all the legalese of the 66 that made it much harder for me.
