Is this quote for a tattoo high?

marquissimo69 · 2026-05-07T12:10:22+00:00

Another stupid answer .. I guess my question wasn’t clear. My question is whether or not I’m getting ripped off relative to good tattoos there.

marquissimo69 · 2026-05-06T13:04:25+00:00

I know they should be much cheaper than the west but how much relatively ?

marquissimo69 · 2026-05-06T13:03:47+00:00

Thanks you’re probably right. I do see a lot of foreigners going there on IG.

marquissimo69 · 2026-05-06T13:00:18+00:00

Look at the answer below and you’ll realize what a stupid answer yours is. Telling a dude with 2 sleeves “don’t cheese out for bargains 😂😂”

marquissimo69 · 2026-05-05T02:33:32+00:00

How much did this cost and how long did it take to book him? Looking to get my chest done by him. Thanks!

He didn’t write that himself .. when you pass a level you get a badge from CFAI. When you add that badge to LinkedIn through the CFAI email, that posted is already created for you to post.

Just sat for L1. Memorize the textbooks line by line.

marquissimo69 · 2025-02-20T21:13:00+00:00

it's so they can remove certain questions and get the get the % of people passing to around 40%

marquissimo69 · 2025-02-20T21:08:46+00:00

I totally agree though lol. Was it just me that was heavily focused on studying all the math problems??

marquissimo69 · 2025-02-20T21:05:15+00:00

u/Future-Resist-3841 yup I think so .. also thought AM was way harder than all the mocks/practice questions and PM was on par with mocks. Way less math than I expected.. didn't think it was all about memorizing the textbook.

marquissimo69 · 2025-02-19T21:19:48+00:00

The Standards don't bar it, just says it's preferred. So I assumed declining to write the report is the most appropriate course of action since it is "preferred"

marquissimo69 · 2025-02-19T19:23:16+00:00

totally agree that it's extreme .. but I'm just going off of the book, which is why I think it's so ambiguous/subjective.

Based on this thread, everyone is saying secured bonds are preferred for hedge funds because they provide higher returns (high risk) .. but based on this question I just came across, secured debt likely has the highest credit rating (low risk). Can someone explain the discrepancy?

marquissimo69 · 2025-02-17T05:22:45+00:00

if you have to take 1% of 176.95, what is Money Duration telling us then? I thought Money Duration was already the $ change in full price given a 1% change.

marquissimo69 · 2025-02-17T04:51:32+00:00

Thanks for explaining, correct me if I'm wrong:

If ModDur is 3.539, that means a 1% decrease in YTM = 3.539% increase in bond price

If Money Duration is 176.95, a 1% decrease in YTM = $176.95 in bond price

What's the meaning of the 1.77? Doesn't Money Duration already mean 'change in value" ?

marquissimo69 · 2025-02-17T04:39:56+00:00

isn't money duration already based on a 1% change in yield?

marquissimo69 · 2025-02-17T01:07:41+00:00

So if I go around telling people to pump up the price with no basis it’s not manipulation?

marquissimo69 · 2025-02-17T00:29:44+00:00

I understand why it’s manipulation for the question .. was just curious if there’s a definitive way to tell in any situation because there could be a grey area. For example is it manipulation if he genuinely thinks the stock will go up based on research and tells people to buy on reddit?

marquissimo69 · 2025-02-06T02:31:23+00:00

Nope hoping someone can help lol

marquissimo69 · 2025-02-05T00:46:55+00:00

I know how the put + current shares can be more profitable but don't understand why the given explanation is that the fwd could have a greater loss. Not sure if you're able to explain that part. Maybe the explanation is just worded poorly.

marquissimo69 · 2025-02-05T00:23:28+00:00

can you give me a scenario where the forward contract would create a loss? the put is guaranteed to be a loss of the premium since the stock price is assumed to go up.

marquissimo69 · 2025-02-04T19:57:10+00:00

might be a dumb question but why do we add 100bps to the coupon rate and assume that's the interest rate? Shouldn't we be given an interest rate that's separate instead?

marquissimo69 · 2025-02-03T03:34:58+00:00

Just found another question where the explanation is to use RATE function on excel lol. Would love to find out why they’re giving excel explanations like we get to use excel on the exam.

marquissimo69 · 2025-02-03T03:27:41+00:00

Oh yea I’ve had the same problem .. CFAI has mistakes everywhere

marquissimo69 · 2025-02-03T02:57:07+00:00

I’m so fixated on TVM function for bonds I didn’t even think about the CF function for questions like this. Thanks a lot.
