Actually, "math" is an American problem, opposed to "maths" being a Korean problem.

Yeah, the Brits have a lot of problems. You know why? Because they sent their most intelligent people away to another country in the 1780s. They thought they were sending just convicts, but of course only intelligent people would uprise against such class segregation and go along with a plan to be sent far away to a modern day Shangri-la. It was actually their plan all along to be sent to a much larger land with nicer beaches, nicer weather, nicer surroundings, etc. Need proof they were left with all the boring people? Cucumber sandwiches! Nothing else needs to be said.

1.) I'm hoping to break into security analyst role.
2.) Regardless if it's security analysis, I'm hoping being a charterholder helps me break into finance roles where I get paid to think and make decisions as opposed to just cranking out reports for people who think and make decisions. This could be banking, client relations, consulting etc. --- anything is better than corporate finance (unless it's corporate development for a powerhouse firm).
3.) It's become a personal challenge. Me versus my own resolve to get it done, no matter how long it takes.

i just finished mba and did not do corp finance b/c i rather do security analysis. same here, i am holding out till i get what i want and using the charter as leverage. nowadays, everybody has the charter. In 5 years, it will be a MUST.
corp fin could get boring after 2 years -- it is not like Wall sT, where every day is different

To keep my brain active ... to remember HOW to study in case I decide to waste money on an MBA ... Even though thousands of people do the CFA it still has a significant amount of reputation attached to it ... being in the sell-side, its a key to the buy-side.
And of course, I thoroughly enjoy finance
