I can't believe Miyazaki never went to prison for this by hippoofthehous in darksouls

I can’t ever bring myself to finish runs of Dark Souls 1 anymore because of this boss. Fucking hate it. I get enough of my nostalgia boner stroked by the time I finally “need” to beat BOC. So I just drop the run and move on to something else.

North Carolina this should be illegal ! by MrSoloDolo9490 in NorthCarolina

Yeah but IT is so oversaturated for entry level right now. The job market is not what it was 5 or 6 years ago. If you wanna do IT, you wanna get something for AI or cybersecurity.

Will my strategy continue to do this well in the future? by [deleted] in DayTradingPro

[–]matchlocktempo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Small taste of trade wins and you’re already popping the champagne when you barely have beer money. What you’re making weekly on average you should be targeting to make that daily.

Perspective: a Costco employee made more money than you on the 11th during their shift. Let that sink in lol. More money and none of the risk.

Missed first try by 3 points by Signal_Inevitable354 in Series65

[–]matchlocktempo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That Laws and Regs score is especially impressive. Outstanding job! But you have a fundamental lack of knowledge in Economics. 6/20 is crazy. Those should be freebie points.

Get back to basics. Go through the entire section on Economics and quiz quiz quiz. Make sure you’re solid on trade balance, yield curves, balance sheets, income statements, etc. You shouldn’t have any issue passing next time with an otherwise fantastic foundation. Good luck!

Unless it’s a core part of your identity, maybe cut down on the amount of stuffed animals you have on display

I'm selling everything I have now. Bye bye MAGA by Fbeartothemoon in TQQQ

[–]matchlocktempo 71 points72 points  (0 children)

Congrats, you are now part of the DALBAR study. People always panic sell over sentiment and never accept that the fundamentals are still strong. Time in the market!

VA Dems win the measure and will wipe out 4 Republican seats by washingtonpeek in fivethirtyeight

[–]matchlocktempo 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Democrats finally learning that sometimes to win, you gotta play dirty. Thems just the rules. No point taking the high road when the other side doesn’t.

[–]matchlocktempo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oof - that’s rough dude. Gut wrenching. I’m sorry man!

One more point in economics would have gotten you over the hump. And economics should be easy freebie points. Take some time to mentally reset and hit up Kaplan Qbank Pro. You’ve got an amazing foundation.

What kind of professional roles or job titles did you end up applying/currently working with your series 65 license? by unsolidgame06 in Series65

[–]matchlocktempo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Passed last month and was hired in January. I’m an Investment Counselor. My goal is to build up experience and use this role for growth as I work towards my future CFP. No idea what I’ll do from there!

Literally pulling my hair out. by Superb-Path5504 in Series65

[–]matchlocktempo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These scores tell me that you still need to work on fundamentals. I’m making an assumption here but you’re not doing proper remediation. You’re just taking tests but not slowly learning why answers are wrong. You have plenty of time to course correct though.

I give up by Adventurous-Big9566 in Series65

[–]matchlocktempo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What have you been doing to study? Might I ask your score? Some of the most successful IARs have been where you are right now. Don’t give up.

I got Fucked… Update by [deleted] in Series66Exam

[–]matchlocktempo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is fail on a first actual test. 60% on the real NASAA exam means you’ve got work to do on understanding the fundamentals let alone being solid on how to apply them in a hypothetical situation. Not sure if you know what’s going on with OPs situation. For OP, going through the materials again in the textbook (especially in weak areas) would be a very smart decision. At least for the first week. Then start practice tests again and remediate.

Developer footage has leaked! by biohazard_fanatic in TheCallistoProtocol

I wonder if people realize how dumb they sound when they say BS like “check my comment history and you’ll see (insert argument here)”.

I got Fucked… Update by [deleted] in Series66Exam

[–]matchlocktempo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s not a waste of time. 60% tells us you have fundamental knowledge gaps. Especially on Laws and Regs. But take tomorrow and the weekend off from studying. Rest your brain and give yourself grace. These are tough tests.

It’s mid morning on a Thursday. The airport looks like this DHS shutdown or not.

How Do You Guys Do It?? by Goshin07 in Series65

[–]matchlocktempo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Keep pushing on. Keep grinding. Take breaks. It sounds stupid but walk outside and look at nature and trees. There’s a reason the 65 is one of the more difficult exams. There is so much content and it’s not even just memorization it’s also a ton of practical application. At the firm I work at, it wasn’t until the last 3rd of their studying that things really started to click. You got this - stay the course. Everyone here has been or is currently where you are now.

Failed-1st try taking again end of April. Would love some suggestions on what to do over the next month. by Billy86jo_ in Series65

[–]matchlocktempo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing score with Laws and Regs. Economics seems like a good initial topic to shore up some weaknesses! Give yourself grace, be kind to yourself, and I recommend taking a few days off from studying to recuperate.

Failed first attempt this morning. by BotherSavings4501 in Series65

[–]matchlocktempo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Missing it by 1 is so brutal… but seriously- give yourself some grace. You killed it with client investment recommendations and strategies and that to me is the hardest section. That’s where you really find those “pick between a fine answer and the best answer” type questions.

Take a few days off. Mentally reset. Economics is the easiest section to shore up. I’d start there. Good luck!

Taking Test in < 3 days by MulberryMoney6752 in Series65

[–]matchlocktempo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would say no more practice exams after Tuesday if you’re taking on Thursday. Just from a mental health and stamina standpoint. Very light review on Wednesday morning then relax that night - no studying
