If I worked 12/day I would just stay at the office ... I may actually do that now instead of walking home to prepare food and walking back as it's taking up too much time srs

And how can man die better, than facing fearful odds, for the ashes of his fathers, and the temples of his gods?

CFA in Toronto is so fuking saturated ... work experience is more important, so many people just try and credential their way to the top, gotta have balance ... I know cold callers at brokerages making 30k/year that have passed all 3 levels

Also I have living expenses.

It's not too bad tbh I'm just tired and need to get used to it.

Lmao no man ... if I had a wife and kids I'd be literally fuked. I can barely manage my own life. Couldn't imagine trying to make it with a wife and kids.

Gonna take advantage of not having those obligations when I'm young because when I do this grind will be literally impossible.

Better environment.


Access to a printer to print practice problems and stuff.

Large empty boardroom to use.

No distractions.

It's close to the gym anyways.

Better than studying at my poverty apartment.
