Any CPAs that have gone to get their CFA too? Would you say it’s worth it?

I'm sure if you can use it to get into a portfolio management role or some other high paying role, it would be worth it, but other than that, just like being a jacked, you just end up getting mired by other bros and not hiring managers. Definitely impressive feat, no doubt.

If you want to do asset management work, then yes. Otherwise, no. Usually people who have both were in one field or the other first and then decided to switch fields. Having a CPA does not do much to help with asset management jobs and vice versa, so only get the extra credential if you’re looking for a career change. CPA jobs are not going to care about the CFA.
