500m

Another nice video of a Challenger 350. Quite a step up from a light jet.
New:$26m :|

Stuck in my head:
Then I realised no ordinary job will suffice.

Global 7000 when first flight occurred. $73m More expensive that a G650ER

432 Park Avenue PH 95 $82m

• Monthly Maintenance/CC: $17,182
• Monthly Real Estate Tax: $15,910
• No way...

• Phenom 300 $9m--- Really like this 

This video really makes you want to own one...

Missed the oil rally... I was watching it go from 41.30 to 41.60... Ok I will wait.
 ...to 41.50...lunch time... 41.60 after lunch... 3pm... oil over 1% down 41.12... 41.20...
I was doing somehing... keep watching... 41.50 for the most part, after dinner still 41.50... Look at Bloomberg 41.80 ... Watched badminton Above 42. Later... 43, now 43.30...

Anyway, just buy oil... Would surely be above 45

OMG my favourite... G650

Almost maxed out 12GB of RAM... Well I never thought it was going to happen. But I was doing research for coursework so that is understandable.

WTF? Failed SJT?

GLEX

London to KL/ SG... GLEX will do it perfectly, nonstop.  😂 The perfect plane for ultra long range journeys. ( along with G650 and 7X/8X)

Choose the 7X because it is LCY approved... Noise and 5.5 approach.

Lol take all the modules... That's 6 more group work and exams, making it 11 modules in a term.

My motivation level (out of 10) just fell to an all time low this January, mainly caused by the exams.
Also, I used to look forward to choosing the elective modules. But when I found out most of them had group coursework, it wasn't as exciting.

Figures for February onwards are estimated

F.Acc 2 is too hard.

Valuation/Analysis... seems related to M&A / IBD / CFA so it's useful. Downside is remembering the formulas / ratios.
Tax seems ok.
Financial Markets seems ok.
Asset Management: Useful, but most fund managers under-perform anyway.
Most actively managed European equity funds failed to beat their benchmark over the past decade

Risk analysis & modelling/ portfolio theory & valuation /derivatives trading & hedging- very similar, all group cw.
Financial Economics- group video cw. Take it if your maths is good. I would go just to learn more.
Personal Finance- group cw + presentations are too time consuming, but content is doable.
 Exam is too abstract/vague.

F.Acc 2: Consolidation- No idea at all.

Personal Finance--- Not going to take that. I do not want to do a group report. Besides, the 3 questions in the exam are too vague.

☒Portfolio Theory & Investment Valuation
☒Risk Analysis & Modelling
☒Personal Finance
☐Financial Analysis
☑Company Valuation
☐Asset Management
☑Financial Economics [CT8a]

The first line in Asset Management says it involves regression analysis and if you don't like that, it is advisable not to take the module.

Basically it's CAPM, Market Efficiency, Mutual Funds, Hedge Funds, ETFs...
Also... there is no guarantee that taking the module will make you any better in the actual Asset Management. 

Tax... we shall see how it goes.

Well Portfolio Theory & Investment Valuation and Risk Analysis  & Modelling... what is the difference? Both are complementary. Manage a portfolio and you need some risk analyst team...

First lesson has some overlap in utility theory, indifference curves...

Actually Financial Economics has some of that as well. -Risk aversion, Arbitrage, portfolio selection, risk management...
First part of Risk Analysis has some statistics in it.


F.Economics is very tempting. Obviously AS students are going to take that.as part of CT8 exemption.


F.Acc 2... Try your best. F.Acc was so bad... Group accounts are not going to be any better.

I think I failed all the modules. Too bad. Remembering Law and Assurance didn't go so well. FE was unexpected. Others... were no better. I just hope Term 2 will be better.

Really afraid of F.Acc 2 with all that group accounts and 'consolidated' FS.
Tax looks ok... As long as you know how to calculate income tax, corporation tax, NIC, CGT, non taxable items...


I just looked at the Contingencies past paper and just realised that mortality tables existed. Eg PMA92, PFA92C20, AM92 Ultimate...
Survival probabilities and expected lifetime
So cool.

Deep trouble now... Barely remembering anything.
