you go to spin class and at the end they say . . . “bring your arms up” . . . “positive energy in” . . . and “negative energy out” and you visualize all of these words in the air that say “PASS”, sucking all of these PASSes around you like a big cloud of passes coming in and then upon breathing out, you spit out (like John Coffee on the green mile) all of that negative energy, all of those “FAILs” wow - what has the CFAI done to me??
You feel brainwashed by cfai when you get upset that people use cfa as a noun and you know by heart which paragraph they are violating
Might not relate, but when you want to kill anyone who says “Oh, of course you’ll pass, you’ve been studying so hard!”
… when you check analystforum more often than facebook …
… you always see finance abbreviations on car license plates…
…have stuck formula sheets all over your wall rather than posters of your favorite celebtrity and…don’t intend to take them out after the exam…
When You feel excited about buying a whiteboard to solve swap problems
lol SUMZ I do the same thing!!! hahahahaha I thought I was the only one
When you get in trouble for not paying attention to what your wife/gf is saying because you are rehearsing the h-model formula in your head
…you see the lights flicker for last call and think man, studying is going to be rough tomorrow. welcome to my world. thankfully, i’ve got the H model formula firmly implanted already in the brain.
…when you’re girlfriend says something and you always find a CFA term to associate it with. Yesterday: Girlfriend: “do you wanna go SEE a movie?” Me: “crap, gotta review all the Quant formulas.” Girlfriend: “A**hole.”
When you feel like roundhouse kicking anyone who says, “CFA? Certified Financial Advisor?”

“Oh, you’ll be fine!” Another phrase that tempts me to break out a roundhouse kick to the chops.
when you forget waht ‘free will’ is… … and instead think of free cash flow
there’s no free will, there’s only goodwill.
When you see a great job post and do not apply because of the violation in the requirements …“At least a Level 2 CFA…”
Well Dan, it is impossible to be a Level 2 CFA, so they will never find someone to ifll that position… …when you take flashcards into the bathroom at work so no one will catch you studying while on the job…
…when you wake up in the middle of the sleep, because you forgot some formula, that you read just the night before going to sleep.
you turn down a sure thing to go study at the library…
