Starting to look into it.. Any advice would be greatly appreciated :)

I did a finance degree

pretty interesting stuff

ya tip1, gimme all your money.

Too many people I know want stock trading or other financial advise. It's about time to do it legally :) LOL :1orglaugh

Financial Planning Professional Education Program at University of Phoenix... 180 hours. Not too bad.

:thumbsup

Giving people advise is legal. doing it without a license for a fee isn't :)

True :glugglug

I have one CFP class under my belt... not sure if I want to do the other 5. I took at at UOP at Scottsdale campus... nice facility and staff. get your Series 7 first if you don't already have it.. it will make the 1st CFP class fly by.

I'm a finance major, pretty boring stuff mostly but it will help me manage my millions.

Will look into it! Thanks! :thumbsup

It's VERY fascinating. I've been reading finance books since I was 15... :1orglaugh

In the Series 7 requirements it mentions "You must be sponsored by a financial company who is a member of the NASD, or a Self-Regulatory Organization (SRO). ". Did you have a sponsor?

I'm almost done with my finance degree...

really, if you want to make good money, you don't need a degree

just read a bunch of books on stat analysis and shit, you'll do fine

become a day trader

Mine makes very good money long term :thumbsup

Go for it.

i have better things to do than get certified to have common sense
