How are knopman marks series 79 exams compared to the real thing? I have the actual exam in 3 days and have been averaging high 60s - low 70s through knopman so a little nervous.

    I also used Knopman Marks and ended up passing despite averaging far lower on the practice examinations. I think the Knopman marks exams are a little more difficult, particularly the math sections. When comparing the real test to the practice tests, one issue I struggled with was time.

    I stopped taking tests on Knopman and did their Questions with answers shown at the end. It helped me learn faster since I wasn’t worrying about my score and was understanding the rationale behind each right and wrong answer. I would give the benchmark exam sooner rather than later so it helps you understand where you stand

A lot of people say “money isn’t everything,” but it becomes something very quickly when you feel underpaid. It’s hard to stay motivated when the gap feels obvious. How much does compensation affect your day-to-day morale?

Tomorrow is Juneteenth and the markets will be closed. Out of curiosity, how do you feel about the relatively new market holiday? • Strongly support it • Neutral — a day off is a day off • Prefer the markets remain open • Doesn’t impact my business either way For those who have been in the industry a long time, has Juneteenth become just another market holiday, or do you still see mixed opinions among advisors, clients, and firms? Me, I like the day off.

Hi Everyone, I have been having trouble finding a new job (10 months and counting) as a Project Manager despite my extensive experience in the financial industry, I don't want to speculate on the reasons, but now I'm getting to the point of applying for jobs at Walmart or Costco so I can pay my bills more easily, I'm fine with this because work is work but I can't help but think that there may be other options for work that I'm just not considering, or not know about. Any thoughts? Thanks

What are the first 5 things you should do when you get put on a PIP? Just learned about it this morning. I didn't see it coming. Planning on working on the resume later, but I'm spiraling a bit right now.

I’m curious—what evidence are you seeing that men are experiencing reverse discrimination? In financial services, it still seems like most senior leadership positions are held by men. I’m at a conference and overheard a conversation at the next table.
