Hi sumz, i came accross this post and would really like to find out how you are fairing. I am in a similar position, in that I am in a part of the world that does not seam to see the value of the CFA yet, Sub Saharan Africa, Zambia. Am not female or in an overtly racist environment, but I am keen to fully utlise the CFA. I worked for a fairly long time as a Chartered Accountant but, as strange as it may seam, there just too many of those about. Have you found any more websites apart from the Mortly Fool, Investipodia?
