Does it say “, CFA” after it?
Oh sorry my bad…no CFA after it. I am still a bloody financial adviser!
You teased us all. 
I still got my $20 coming baby!!
That is NOT good enough 
Really irritating. The collective annual dues generated by the new members is nearly $3.5 million. Cap that long-term fee stream at, say, 7%, and we are adding $50 million in enterprise value to the CFA Institute. One would think they could give us a coherent explanation/schedule as to when, exactly, we become members.
I think we should really bomb them with emails complaining about this year’s opaque charter awarding procedure, at least they’ll have the chance to improve themselves for next year.
Ok, if you look at this link
http://www.cfainstitute.org/community/membership/directory/pages/results.aspx?YearCharterEarned=2013
the number of new charterholders has increased from 2675 to 2733…2736
They are finally releasing them!
YES!!! Got it!!!
Check the member directory!!!
YES!
CFA after my name in the Directory!!!
I see mine!! WOOHOO!!
Got it too. Woohoo!!!
2778 Now!
Not for me yet… WHAT THE HECK!!!
Me either!
1:30 is when the update started it seems. You were right.
They have added about 1000 names so far. There are probably 7000 names total to put in, so 85% are still waiting. At this rate, should be done in about 20 minutes.
I’ve seen some AF comments lamenting the lack of patience…e.g. “Worked on this for three years plus, what’s a few more hours?”. While that approach may resonate with rationale passive people, it does not work for me. It’s been a long agonizing journey filled with very distinct instances of feeling screwed. Knowing that you must play by the ever-changing rules of a faceless organization. Knowing you have zero leverage and that grabbing your ankles is the mandatory candidate position. Today’s silly delay antics is just another reminder that you can still be f**ked with.
Mine was updated. woohoo!!!
andytrader, CFA bitches
How did you determine that?

Before they started updating, there were 2675 CFA’s conferred in 2013. They are now in the low 4000s. Number is slowly creeping up.
