Sage advice from the OG, SG

Exactly. Anyone here use Twitter? (I don’t).

#BeBest

bruh this is not a DIARY, ITS A FORUM! i write here to consolidate my thoughts and get feedback or hear other arguments! also 3 things.

  1. though im a catholic, im not really religious. so i dont ask wwjd. im not trying to sanctimonious either. just basically saying that he’s a being a dick to someone who is basically telling him to stop.

  2. what you dont know wont really hurt you. friends/fam have no idea they are being shitted on. so no one is getting hurt. often times though i do shit on them, but i do it so they get better. and i stop when asked.

  3. lastly, dont go to where they are. for example, i find homeless people offensive, but i dont drive to where they are and tell them how worthless and stinky they are.

  1. She came here and made an account. Greenie did not go where she is, unless you’re claiming the whole internet is hers. In which case you are talking about your friends and family where they are.

  2. So apparently being a p*ssy and talking about people behind their back is more noble now. I’d actually prefer you said that to a homeless person’s face, 90% chance you’d get wrecked, please livestream .

  3. What you don’t know definitely hurts people, but as a self proclaimed serial cheater I can see why you would make that weak excuse. I guess we can all only aspire to only go on public forums and have the decency to sh*t on our parents and friends behind their back for lol points. Seems legit.

Other than what others (particularly BS) have stated, let me add this: Yes, I am a religious person–a conservative Christian, in fact. And I make no claims to be perfect, although that shouldn’t stop me in my pursuit of being perfect.

Nonetheless, I did admit that it was probably unfair for us to criticize her appearance. After all, my appearance is nothing to be proud of. But to go to a website that is dedicated to studying for a CFA exam and criticizing the writing of a person who has claimed to pass the CFA exam is hardly unfair or, for that matter, unchristian. (Add to this the fact that she has a degree in English from Harvard and an MBA from NYU.) In fact, it’s to be expected.

As others have pointed out, her writing has absolutely no value to it. I continue to read her articles, out of sheer curiosity. In probably 50+ articles that I have read of hers, I have yet to read one single thing that adds any value to my practice–and I’m pretty much the dictionary definition of her target audience. (This particular one was so atrocious that I wanted to share it.)

On some level, she has offended me. Since we are both CFA Charterholders, everybody who reads her crap is associating it with the Charter, thereby (on some level) associating me with it. If I were not a CFA Charterholder and I read this, I would genuinely question the value of the program. And I’m kinda surprised that CFA Institute hasn’t done something to protect their brand.

Why do I continue to be a **** to her? (Your words, not mine.) Easy–because she keeps writing stupid crap.

double post–pls delete

  1. she only did that because she found out. she is not a member of the forum. its equivalent to say my friends complainging to me about talking shit in the forum, and them calling me out, in which case i would stop.

  2. its a matter of respect. there is no reason to cause strife so i wouldnt do it to their face. now if they do something offensive, then id call the cops. cuz why dirty my hands.

  3. it only hurts if they find out. and for the record i owned up to the cheating. i only cheated cuz she went to vegas before the new year without me, so i thought hse was cheating. plus we werent serious yet. i mean she literally asked me what we were, and my answer was just 2 people trying to have fun.

think of it this way. i wouldnt shit on a bum for being a bum cuz they dont matter. but i would shit on a friend or a parent because i want them to do better.

So you shit on your friends and family behind their back on a public forum where they don’t see what you write because you want them to do better? Not because you’re a coward. Got it. Makes sense now. And you only talk about people behind their backs out of respect. Ok, right I think I’m following along. And as long as you can successfully hide the crappy behavior it’s ok but if they find out then you’ll stop because you got caught being a P.O.S. And you only cheated because you got confused (ignoring all the other times you said you were a serial cheater). Ok, right on, you’re right, I was wrong about you. All this time I thought you’re an idiot making weak excuses to feed your delusion and ripping on your friends/family to look cool, but turns out you’re a real stand up guy!

i do it to their face too. i use the forum to consolidate my thoughts, get other arguments, basically a feedback mechanism cuz i am kind of a shitty person left to myself.

honestly i dont understand what your missing. you think it is more appropriate to shit on people to their face than do it behind their backs? lol, why is it even cowardly? i could easily say it to their face but that would be in bad taste.

as for beign a serial cheater. i’ve been called out on this a lot. and tbh, they knew what they signed up for. that was their decision. i didnt mislead them or lie. that is teh biggest misconception of it all. its what they wanted.

you may think i ma shitty person. but im actually a pretty stand up guy that puts a lot of thought in every action. now if other dont like those actions. i generally dont care.

Yes, it’s 100% better to only say what you would say to someone’s face. If you have something to say, say it to the person like a man or don’t say it. It’s obviously cowardly, you’re too much of a p*ssy to do it. It’s why you sneak around being someone else doing things you know would get shut down if you were caught. You’re like a child. Yeah, you’ve been called out a lot because it’s a stupid excuse. Like some clown domestic abuser saying his wife knew what she signed up for and could have left. It’s what she wanted.

Ultimately you’re just a clown living out a delusion. The kind of delusion from someone mentally incoherent enough to say “i am kind of a shitty person left to myself” and “you may think i ma shitty person. but im actually a pretty stand up guy” in the same moronic paragraph and take themselves seriously.

Speaking of stupid ****, why not say that you’re inundated with it _ daily _, instead of using the stupid phrase on a daily basis?

Do you even know what “basis” means?

Lacks a certain something. I think its the phonetics. Daily may be more efficient but it has a lilt to it where as basis delivers more umph.

“Basis is generally the amount of your capital investment in property for tax purposes. Use your basis to figure depreciation, amortization, depletion, casualty losses, and any gain or loss on the sale, exchange, or other disposition of the property.”

Better yet, why not say stupid shit with which you’re inundated _ daily _?

I was distracted trying to squeeze a “whom” in there.

Back on point–by virtue of the fact that she regularly writes “academic” (and I use the term VERY loosely) articles for the public, she is giving tacit approval for others to criticize her material.

If Nerdy’s girlfriend cheats on him and his best friend does coke and pays for hookers, neither one of them has given you permission (even implied) to discuss it on a forum dedicated to studying together and passing together.

Knock, knock!!!

Who’s there?

To!!!

To who?

No. To WHOM!!!

so if you say it to someone’s face but your own face is hidden behind an internet persona, you still “man, not a p***y”?

bs is not the hulk? also if you dont understand how those 2 can occur concurrently. then perhaps ur just a boy scout. ultimitely what i am trying to say it, i work hard to be a stand up guy, i try my best to reason out my actions. im not saying those actions will be pure or right, but they are at least reasoned with several excuses supporting it. anyways i think we disagree. plus i do not think u are how u act in this forum. ur too much of a dick. no one would like/put up with you.

I’d gladly comment in person, it’s about the consistency. I’ve met 20+ people off of here, same guy offline.
