Another step (forward)

CFA Level I......done.

I really think I got lucky on this one.  I know I didn't spend enough time preparing and I guessed on a lot of questions, so I really didn't expect to pass.  I guess basic background knowledge does help.  At least my guesses were somewhat educated.  And, I guess having gone through three other insanely stressful public exams helps.

Except for the friend that wrote the exam with me, nobody really knows that the results came out today.  It's much easier that way, because it's stressful enough as it is.  Eventually, people at work will start asking, but I have no intention of sharing the news until somebody does.

On the flip side, it always feels like a bit of a loss when I can't share it with the person(s) that matter most.

Sometimes, I really don't know what all of this is for.  So what if I passed?  So what if I can put the letters CA behind my name by the end of the year?  So what if I'm one step closer to CFA?  What does it matter?

None of this is what I really care about.
