@@scarecrow87 Unfortunately I didn’t land the internship role…. I met all the requirements on the job listing but I couldn’t answer a lot of the senior analyst’s questions and he was really scrutinising me regarding on the job questions. Didnt seem too pleased about it when I tried justifying that I was just a second year uni student but i have more investment related knowledge than the average student. I thought it was a stress test at first, but as time went on he kept having a go at me for being under qualified despite me ticking off all the boxes on the job requirements shown on the listing.

He had some valid points that it’s extremely competitive and that i had to bring my A game (which i didnt) But oh well, we move.

@Gabriel Marc I have always wanted to invest in this crypto of a thing but I do not know how to go about it if you don’t mind , Can you share some ideas out here ?
@Gabriel Marc Thanks for the advise and you are right about the rumors regarding financial adviser . But I’m ready to try. If you do not mind , How can I contact Mr Rodney Hamilton Steve?
I tell everyone who would listen don’t rely on just salaries and do not save all your money in the bank as bank wouldn’t give you any returns. Invest your money and diversify your income on something productive so in the long run, you will be happy with your decision.
I got to know Rodney Hamilton Steve on a UA-cam video , where I read a comment of his great works. I had my doubts just as anyone reading these now. So , I did some research and decided to give him a try . Today, I’m glad I did as I’ve made $100k working with him. I would advise that you do a proper research when you something keeps repeating so that you don’t miss out on any opportunity as a result of doubts.
The Key to becoming successful, never give up , try and try again until you’ve succeeded. Failing doesn’t mean the end of the road . A failure is one who gives up when down. Don’t let anyone stop you from trying out any investment. Lastly , Fears and doubts kills ,never procrastinate. Just do it for it is best trying than not trying at all.

This is just a wow video! Got me a lot of clarity on what I actually want to do in Finance.
I got into asset management by becoming a chartered accountant first. Good way in, and no need for CFA.
Really? I’ve never heard of getting into asset management after doing , say, ACA

Great content Afzal. Always amazing.

Yeah that's relevant enough 👍🏽
Awesome man - thanks for the response!
Hey Afzal, been a few years out of school working primarily commercial banking, how do you transition to asset management?
Hey Afzal, appreciate the content on the CFA charter. Any odds you could do a video on the CAIA and its applicability ?
What if youve done an MSc in Finance that's CFA accredited instead of CFA level 1? Does that help bridge the gap in some way?
Its not true bro... I had 60% in 10th 50% in 12th i still landed in IB and am not from some big college its all about how much u grind in trenches!

Thank you brother !
*INVESTMENT IS THE MOST POWERFUL TOOL OF RICHES NO MATTER WHAT YOU ARE IN WEALTH IF YOU DON'T INVEST YOUR WEALTH DIMINISH AND YOU REMAIN IN SIGNIFICANT*
I absolutely agree with you but only if the grace of God is sufficient enough for that individual
If people can understand the opportunities they are missing today in trading investment l think they will actually help to call for attention

Are there any courses to learn the asset management analyst
Is an IMC for workers in the UK or US as well?
What about PEVC, is there any sale team and investment professional separated?
Kindly make some videos for CISI and its level

Why u r not apply for govt job

investment banks are not easy to get into
They never are
An asset manager is not an investment bank. They are two different things
For the Algorithmus

simple solution get your friends dad who owns an asset manager to hire you. Lol
