What really blows my mind is some of these guys who have their MBA and their CFA, what the hell? How did the pull that off? Do they not have lives?
The CFA is gold. It's the standard for money managers. If someone has both the CFA and MBA, wow!

If the S means Saskatchewan, I don't want it. They can't even count to 12.
