CFA General

Hi Everyone,

I am planning to do CFA/FRM, I am 28 years old and will turn 29 by July 2018. I would like someone to advise me the age till which a person can opt CFA/FRM to get a job in Finance. Your kind help and advise would be highly appreciated.

Thanks,

Swaminathan

When the 107+ crowd comes to your front door with pitchforks and torches, don’t come cryin’ to me!

What’s the point of sitting for it after 93?

The CFA Institute has some posts about this. Usually someone in their 70s is sitting for the exams.

Just guessing from when I took Level 3 last year, there were several people well into their 60s at our site.

I know someone who was 96 and was offered a job post mortem. Like someone showed up to their funeral and gave them a finance internship. True story.

^ I heard a similar story… Goldman showed up to this guy’s funeral and dropped a bonus check (2X potential salary) in his coffin, discounted back to present value of course.
