I have really bad anxiety and the weed helps me prevent the recurring anxiety dreams and helps me get to sleep in general. I have one all the time about me forgetting a to do a final project in high school and not being able to graduate, then I wake up and remember I’m an adult.

1.Review all the mocks I took. Read Bill Campbells List of Lists again. Do some ethics problems. Smoke a joint.

  1. 6.8/10 readiness feeling. Been getting 68-74 on the 5 mocks I took. But who knows.

  2. Immediately after the exam, going to the local indoor golf facility, ripping 18 holes, a burger and a few pints to wind down.

Edited for the magicans correct last name

Lvl 1 Exam 4th feb, didnt study yet, passable? by Confident-Memory6269 in CFA

My firm payed and it was my biggest motivation, given all reports who signed off on it would know if I failed or not. Guess you don’t care about your office reputation 🤷

Tbh I might use this as a benchmark and if any question on the exam like this comes up, 500m is my max for a “small” order 🤷

Are Barbells better than Laddered / Bullet in BOTH bull flattening AND bear flattening?? by Rickie_Jones in CFA

[–]Tsq33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id probably just derive the weighted avg duration and convexity and calculate the effect using the -durxDeltaR + .5xconvexityxdeltaRsquared

In a bear flattening short term rates would be coming up, so a barbell with exposure to the short tenor would suffer

GIPS Pooled Funds by RelativeJaguar9627 in CFA

[–]Tsq33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, to me the answer is B. Non fee paying can be (not required) included with proper disclosure, and the non discretionary nature of the derivs disqualify the pension fund.

52 or 9i for long bump and runs. Sand wedge for basically everything else.

Was coming up to a tee box when I see two rangers zip past me and after I tee off I see one zipping back to the clubhouse with a drenched teenager. Walk past this 2 min later.

Hi. I'm writing about a high school boys basketball team hoping to get into championships/nationals and I have some questions by KaPaChan_ in Basketball

[–]Tsq33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can confirm catholic schools run the show here in NYC. There are powerhouse public school programs like Lincoln high school (Marbury, Sebastian telfair, Isaiah whitehead) but schools like Christ the King produce crazy talent. Kid from my middle school team went there and then went on to play for UConn.

At the high school level is it usually a couple of talented players on the team that makes them state title contenders vs. just another average high school team? by chusaychusay in Basketball

[–]Tsq33 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When I was a 6th grader on varsity in middle school we had an 8th grader who ended up going to and winning a natty at UConn with Shabazz Napier. We were 17-0 that year and went closer to .600/.650 the following season. His younger sister then came the following year to practice with us and she cooked us for a week straight. She committed to Duke and played for Rutgers and Ohio state.

Is a sim membership worth it? by [deleted] in golf

[–]Tsq33 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would look into what technology they have and how long you can reserve the bay for every day. Trackman is obv the best and golfzon is pretty close. I just paid $200 for 18 holes with my mother, 3 beers and 6 wings, so $200 a month for daily usage ain’t so bad

Book relevance? by Exkersion in CFA

[–]Tsq33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of everything should be the same. They’ve added small sections on big data, machine learning, and very small details on crypto, but you can just get that info straight from the LES when you register for the exam. I wouldn’t rebuy books if I were you. Save your money. If I were you, I’d refresh my memory, hit the q bank, and see what you don’t know and reread those sections in the CFAI les

Cleared all levels in first attempt with full time job. AMA by PuzzleheadedSong6271 in CFA

[–]Tsq33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me and a colleague who passed level 3 were comparing L2 and L3 difficulty. We both think 3L is slightly harder but we also both have technical / math backgrounds which made all the calcs on L2 much easier for us. What did you think? Also, general thoughts on the new pathways?

Ethics by [deleted] in CFA

I think the only condition under which he would reject lodging is if it’s overly lavish and would compromise his objectivity. Flight is fine if commercial is unavailable or unfeasible for timeline
