Taking the FAR exam soon and having issues remembering all the ratios. On my simulations I get a ratio cheat sheet with the required formulas, is something like this provided on the actual exam?

Yeah I remember them giving you the formulas for more complex stuff. I don’t remember really having to remember any complex ones

Yeah and if you are good with using the authoritative literature, you can often find an example simulation question

They give you the authoritative literature???? I avoid looking at that on the practice tests because I didn’t think they would. Damn this just got a bit easier

Stuck between 2 offers, which would you choose? Eventually I want to work in ML/AI or blockchain/crypto

Offer 1: Non-profit financial advisor, awesome culture, design process & ethos align with mine, but still beholden to some outdated backend systems. Basically won't be able to innovate for a while

Offer 2: Consultancy focused on spinning up startups in large corp. Seems like cool work but I know very little about the culture/ process. Very sales-y HR but haven't talked to designers yet

It can be impossible to deal with financial losses due to declining health or unforeseen circumstances by not having life insurance. In these cases, the solution to your debts (that can affect the financial stability of you or your loved ones) may fall within the category of life insurance.

I need help!!! Got an offer for Citi Private Bank at 110k for an Associate Banker (A1) position. Considering all the bulge brackets just announced 100k base for 1st year Analysts and that every year you go up 5k, that makes me feel like they are trying to lowball. I stupidly gave a salary range during the interview of 110-140k, cuz I was guessing, but I know JPM pays 130k base for the same role. How do I get myself to 130? First time negotiating, any advice appreciated!!!
