So, this was an interesting topic put to me by a colleague so I thought i would post it here. Wondering, for those of you with hotornot.com accounts; Whats the spread between your score there and your last 40/60/80 CFA score. This is an excellent example of the age old Brains or Beauty argument. I’m assuming the two are somewhat negatively correlated but who knows. I have a spread of about 15% (not saying which way though). For all the women who failed but got 85% or higher on hotornot.com I will be introducing a limited time offer for free L2 tutoring, late nights and weekends only.
Are you Steven D. Levitt?
I have a 9.6 on hotornot right now http://www.hotornot.com/r/?eid=AEBLRLN&key=DRQ And I was > 70% on all sections in Level I
Although one could argue that brains and beauty are negatively correlated due to lack of insentive for the gene pool winners to use their brains, I propose that brains attract beauty and that we will soon see an uberclass composed of brilliant hot people…

Although intelligent people frequently pair with attractive people, its the ugly idiots who conceive with the highest frequency. The result of socialist government policy which protects the weak: Dilution > Evolution
Of course I agree with the last statement, perhaps I should have elaborated to say that I see an uberclass and a separate idiotclass popping up… With the larger numbers in the idiotclass…
Of course we are talking over many generations, if our current lifestyle continues, which may not be so…
Dont forget genetic engineering. In a few generations we will be able to design the genetic makeup of our offspring, for a price. Only the uberclass would be able to afford such a thing and in several generations we will probably see the emersion of the super-uberclass, at which point a CFA designation will be worthless.
I disagree… I have faith that the CFA institute will keep making the exams progessively harder… As they have for the past 40 years…
