Easiest letters to add after your name

CFA General
#1

Let’s keep this a litte light hearted… We are busting our butts to add “CFA” to our name. What are the easiest to obtain corporate certifications out there? I’m just wondering because I see people like “Joe Doe, PMP” on LinkedIn all the time and sometimes think this is a silly crap.

CFP at least compared with CFA?

#3

I am so glad someone brought out the pmp talk - half the people in my group have it and think they are awesome - soooo lame …

#4

PMP is for project management. It is not a big deal to get but PM makes in 6 figures. A friend of mine who is just 26 has one and he makes more than any analyst makes in my company. It is totally different thing. I know it doesnt make any sense to boast about PMP

#5

But the qualifications for PMP are basically ‘work experience’ and what seems like one, fairly easy, test.

#6

way easier than CFA…

Ph.D.(ABD) are bogus letters, but in most situations it means you passed qualifiers. Passing my qualifiers was the hardest thing I’ve ever done. Writing a dissertation, not hard.
