So …i have this habit of eating while i’m studying…its the only thing that really keeps me awake really… was gulping down some peach slices ( you know the ones that come in a can in syrup stuff)… unfortunately…i dropped a TEENEEE TINYYY drop of the damn syrup onto the ONLY FRIEND that’ll help me get through the CFA exam…My Calculator!!! right between the “6” button and the “+” button…so basically anytime I need to add numbers…which is you know…10000% of the time…my “+” button needs to be pushed down extremely hard…cause it keeps getting stuck… sigggghhhh how am I ever gonna get through this!!!

Acutually, that would pretty much do it.
A) Enjoy licking it? B) Take pride in the fact that you masterminded a plan to have a concealed snack to take into the exam.

Just think of how strong your calculator finger will be come test time. That is sure to impress someone.

if i were, I’d just learn to perform all those calculations in my head. I’m sure you will enjoy calculating IRR while driving.
hahahah…needed the laughs…just finished the study session on fixed income… binomial tree, abs, mbs, cdo, cmo, blah blah blah… I am still upset about my calculator…
So what, zimzim’s boss went on a cruise right before the exam last year and only brought him back a t-shirt.
I think you should try boiling the calculator.

Indeed, I can’t seem to shake this LII section. I’m all over it this year though, I’m finding TONS of time to study, seeing as I’m building a house and now have a six month old baby boy…in my spare times I like to reread the valuing emerging market stuff.
Put some saran wrap around the new calculator you buy when you use it.

Nonsense. He can get dried peaches and then sing that horrible song while eating them (Millions of peaches, peaches for me . . . )
