310 T'ang Dynasty Poems vs CFA charter

[JoeyDVivre]

So did anyone see that advertisement? I'm going with T'ang dynasty poems...

The best part about the add is the "Actor Dramatization" in tiny print at the bottom.

You mean that babe hasn't actually translated all those poems and earned a charter? Darn. That must be an ethical violation.

Where do I find this?

It was in the last issue of Bloomberg. I showed it to my wife and when she finally stopped laughing, she told me she'd lost all respect for the charter and thinks I wasted the years I spent studying for it. T'ang dynasty, my ass.

 

[WhitecollarRedneck]

Just to clarify: it was in the last issue of Bloomberg **Magazine**. I think Kravis was on the cover.

 

[Big Nodge]

It's in this week's Barron's as well.

 

[no_slogan]

Yup - it's on pg 12-13 of the August Bloomberg magazine with Kravis on the cover

I liked the "wrestled a shark with my bare hands" ad better...

 

[numi]

they should come up with a more compelling ad, something about how CFA charterholders eat sharks alive

 

[Gouman]

Under the assumption the translation exercise would be a self study, T'ang Dynasty poems would be more brutal. Even relaxing the assumption I'm rolling with the poems being tougher.

CFA promotional material has always sucked IMO.
