This is my first post, so this is mostly a test. I’m learning how to create this website/blog as I go, so bear with me.
This is what I read in 2015, as far as books go. My goal was to read 25 books last year, which was in addition to the level 3 CFA curriculum that I was exclusively focused on for about 4-5 months during the first half of 2015. I also read several hundred/thousand articles as well.
The plan was to read 50 books in 2016. I am off to quite a slow start, so not sure if I will meet that goal, but I will sure as hell try.
