    It's such an arduous task, but there's a bug in me whispering that I should go for it. Or, maybe I'm kidding myself.

    Would love to hear any feedback from anyone who has pursued this. :)

    Sorry - Chartered Financial Analyst. Basically the most globally recognized designation for investment professionals, and notoriously difficult to obtain.

    If they can ever figure at the alchemy that would allow them to convert the spicy chicken sandwich to spicy chicken nuggets, I'd complete the **** out of them.

    There's a Chik Fil A near us that just opened that is drive-thru or walk-up only. You can walk up and order from some screens on the side of the building, or just do a drive thru. Can't go inside. Crazy. The future is here.

    Hope that helps, OP.

    I have completed the first level. Taking a break though because I have 4 classes left in grad school. Which i have also taken breaks from so it’s taken me a while to finish. I can’t do life, child, and both at same time.

    My advice is to make 100% sure you will complete this to the end if you start it. Make sure you understand what that entails before you make that decision (it’s really f’ing hard)

    I’m hitting like on this response just because it’s actually relevant and wasn’t dorky like my previous post in this thread.

    I complete my CFA every single time, but gotta make sure I get more than 2 CFA sauces for me to finish my meals.

    I for one appreciate all the chicken-related posts. I mean, I should have known. :p

    I signed up for it and the found out we were having twins so that changed things. Since I had already signed up I still took the 1st one with minimal studying. Didn’t do all that bad but obviously never had the time to keep trying. That was 8 years ago. Maybe when I’m an empty nester and bored I’ll take it for giggles.
    Definitely wished I would have taken it right after grad school with having most topics still fresh. Heck, curious if it’s not just better to skip grad school and do the CFA from a self marketing standpoint.

    This is Clutchfans, you knew what you were signing up for! Lol. Is the CFA like the CPA at all? Or am I completely offbase? I thought my friend was studying for the CFA instead of the CPA like 10 years ago, but hell I can't remember now.

    Using sauces to complete CFA is cheating

    Have you tried their salad sauces? Bbq honey mustard and avocado ranch dressing aren't too bad for fries or sandwich.

    If u aint cheatin, u aint tryin.
