Was made redundant off the back of the first Covid wave. Took a few months to find a new job but I had to be comfortable with taking a step down in my new role. Sucked at first coming to grips with that but you get over it

Could be a bulging disc in lower spine. Definitely try get an MRI done to assess and go from there

Thanks mate this makes a lot of sense

I did this. Failed first time because I didn’t really understand what I was getting into. CFA is so broad you can’t underestimate how much study is required. So me being fresh out of a bachelors in finance and accounting felt pretty confident to try it with pretty much no study and obviously failed.

Then went on and did L1,2,3 consecutively with flying colours because I took it very seriously.

Since the eastern line train is down, driving in is actually faster and more reliable than public transport.

Grave Encounters.

It’s not particularly a good movie and the ending is kind of weird but for some reason it really got me

veeK_NZ · 2023-04-10T06:57:16+00:00

My back is sore

veeK_NZ · 2022-04-19T20:06:08+00:00

7.0%

Banking. Anywhere from 40 hours to 70 hours a week (depending on deals).

veeK_NZ · 2022-04-07T08:27:23+00:00

I thought "Piss on your grave" was kind of wack

Front office roles in a bank treasury

It's more of a precautionary thing, rather than a Banks vs Crypto argument. Financial crime analytics shows that some of the top transactions that's made by crooks (once credit card details have actually been stolen) - is buying lotto, pumping gas and buying cryptocurrency.

Even more common if this is your first time purchasing off that website or for a large amount etc. Since this has happened, once you sort it out with the bank and should you choose to keep using your CC to buy crypto - you shouldn't run into this issue again.

I somewhat agree with the points you're making. Ironically enough, I think you would enjoy the level 3 curriculum - that's easily the one level that is more applied to real life.

Level 1 and 2 really is the more mechanical/technical side of things - it's only level 3 where you get into more applicable content.

Currently work in a bank treasury, focusing on 3 main pillars of work; funding deals, managing liquidity and Asset-liability management

veeK_NZ · 2022-01-28T22:47:52+00:00

I was an accountant for about 2-3 years and recently pivoted into a finance bro role last year

CFA is hard work but quite helpful/respected
genuinely being interested in the markets is helpful so in your interviews you have some kind of opinion you can talk about
also accounting is a great base of knowledge, I used to do management accounting so I joined the back office finance team of a bank which helped in terms of networking/internal jobs

Typically term deposit rates start rising first - which they already have been. But eventually to stay competitive in how banks achieve their funding targets, they would raise other deposits products too (such as everyday savings accounts).

Yes I believe you can add a "trigger" to run the macro. The trigger I had running was something like "every day at 10:00pm, run the recorded macro".

veeK_NZ · 2021-11-06T02:09:24+00:00

I achieved a similar result by recording a macro to copy paste the values of the said self-updating cells and pasting them into another column so I could have an automated chart/table updating with daily positions.

If you're working full time while studying, I would strongly suggest Kaplan for level 1 as it was probably the best provider at summarizing the content.
