I’d have to strongly disagree with you null&nuller. I suppose it depends on what part of the finance world you work in. Bankers don’t care about it too much. But if you’re anywhere on the buy-side or in research cfa is well known the world round. And its getting more so. I’ve been exposed to nearly the whole gamut of sub-fields within finance and I say this with confidence.
maybe there should be a secret handshake for CFA? maybe there IS a secret handshake? maybe I will find out after the results come out in 48 hours…
this is my third l3 attempt. passed the first 2 levels at first attempt. i dont even want to think how i will face up to myself if i fail again forget facing friends, family and coworkers. i think i had a decent test this year, but last two years’ results are still at back of my mind and i feel miserable now waiting for tomorrow

There is an initiation ritual which include among other things, drinking the blood of Vampire bats and making money from a Goldman employee.
