So do you work in finance in Taiwan? I am currently studying for level 2 of my CFA exam while studying chinese and going to just be doing my own investments.[/quote]
Nah, I’m just a lowly English teacher lol.
When I was a kid, I had delusions about working as an IBanker on Wallstreet. But then I realized it’s not all it’s cracked out to be.
I love finance so I studied it for my own personal benefit and knowledge.
I have looked into taking the CFA, even met a guy in the army who took it. IIRC, level 1 is pretty easy. But then level 2 and 3 consist of essay questions which are hard enough as is but during the test, you are also under time constraints. I hate essay questions so that alone probably swayed my decision into not taking it. That and I don’t plan on working in finance lol.

Ya I heard level 2 is the toughest since more math involved. I heard the reason pass rates for the exams are so low though is because a lot of people take it who know english as a second language,at least that is what I am hoping. The CFA is really only useful if plan on working in the financial markets but never know.
