PASS!



Dad just got the news: he passed his CFA level 2 exam. Only 12% of people taking level two pass on the first try. Well done papa bear!!!

Amendment from Papa Bear: Kids, never underestimate the value of random guessing in passing a multiple choice exam. According to chaos theory, random events (if repeated enough times) will eventually reveal a self-similar pattern i.e. even in chaos random patterns emerge. With one minute to go in the morning session of the exam and four questions blank, I spelled BACB. That is the kind of skill your father used to pass his exam and the random luck of it all will forever haunt him. I wish you the same luck I have enjoyed.
