Blogging Vacation: CFA time

Life

So, I’m taking the next 11 weeks off from blogging…and pretty much existing too.

I’m going to attempt to write the CFA level 1, 6 hour exam, December 6th.

The books showed up, tonight.  2775 HUGE-bi-colored-no-picture-pages.

Work + Trade/Invest + Eat + Sleep + Study.

Apparently, lots of people fail, not cause they can’t master the material…but because they aren’t dedicated.

So hopefully, with my new structured education in finance, you can all expect - a new, smarter, Jeff.

Just a little update…

Life

Started my 5th or 6th day job last monday….Working in the Technology Integration practice, in the Systems Development service line, as a Business Technology Analyst…for Deloitte.  That’s a mouthful.

I think Deloitte is breeding super heroes…I can’t put it into words, any better than that…is that obnoxious to say?  All I’m saying is that, I am super impressed with the company culture and training that’s available.

I’m not sure if I’m going to fit in here, or not…time will tell.

They sent me to Arizona for my second week…I think it’s a million and a half degrees with the A/C on. I get back next week.

Sounds like my first project, could take me to Montreal and/or Paris…but I’m not sure, at all.

Orientation and a 2 hour commute has had me tied up, and barely able to glance at Mrs. Market…after I get back from Arizona, I’m looking forward to moving downtown Toronto at the end of August…my commute will shrink from 2 hours down to 2 minutes.  So, with that time difference…I’ll be back in the online conversation and dancing with Mrs. Market again.  Looking forward to it…and getting onto my first project at Deloitte.

Buffett on stuff

Buffett, Leading, Life, Success

Buffet was in London, Ontario…I was like hours away from the man…anyway, he spoke, and somebody took notes.  These are the notes.
