Hey guys,
I started with volume 6 and now am halfway through volume 2 and so far………holy f**k that stuff is boring.
Between performance attribution, GIPS, taxes and estate planning, I just want to shoot myself.
Looking forward to capital market stuff, equities, FI and derivs.
 
Capital market is slow moving too, very slow moving. Good thing is - give it the time it deserves, it pays you back in kind; unlike GIPS etc.
FI, Derivatives and Risk management are good.. Good luck :)
 
Read volume 6 if you’re having trouble sleeping at night. Works like a charm…..
 
FI / Derivatives was a refreshing read but i’m afaird it still wasn’t that interesting…
 
The Volume 6 book of Level III is the worst book in the entire CFA curriculum.
 
It doesn’t get a whole lot better I’m afraid. The finish line is close though!
 
I was hoping for responses like “just wait for volume X, it’s awesome!” !
Mbleh.
Good thing I started with volume 6 then. Can’t imagine doing that in April.
For some reason I find volume 2 worse. That estate planning. Them taxes. At least the behavioral stuff is interesting, I guess.
