Default Passed my securities exam!!!

Well, I have been suppressing my LS1TECH surfing urges lately to study for the Series 66 NASD exam and it paid off.

I recently (few months) changed jobs and now work for an Insurance company/Investment Advisor and needed to obtain three licenses (ins license,66,7).

I got my insurance license the first month and now I have the 66 and next month I'll knock out the motherload Series 7.

Just needed to celebrate

Brian


FYI- I work in the Retirement Plans Sales and Marketing group.

Texas A&M grad

Bach of Science : Ag Development - not related I know but after taking 2 years off it was the fastest way out. Econ was my major prior to the sebatical.

I'll take the week long course the last week of Sept and take the test on the 30th.

I like the study material since it comes with a CD for practice tests.
