Keep reading…you’re obviously more feeble-minded than I even estimated…

You remind me of the little kid who's just been pounded by the school bully, but gets up again and again, flailing at the bully only to be pounded again...and again...and again.

You should learn when to stay down.

Go read the link and tell me what is wrong with what is said.  Cite a single mistake.

How's that?  Are you satisfied or are you going to get up and take another ass-whuppin'?

That statement is not in the link you posted.  What are you doing, just making things up?

Here's the content of the link you posted.

Which exam should I take: Series 65 vs. Series 66?
Candidates that have met or will meet the co-requisite of the Series 66 exam, would elect to take the Series 66 instead of the Series 65 exam due to its brevity, scope and relative level of difficulty.  Candidates for the Series 66 exam must also pass the Series 7 exam.  Those candidates that are not eligible to sit for the Series 66 exam can sit for the more lengthy and onerous Series 65 exam which carries no prerequisite or co-requisite.

As I said, in order to be allowed to take the Series 66 you must have a Series 7, or plan to get one (your 66 will not be valid until you pass Series 7.)

Series 65 is for people who do not have, and do not intent to take, Series 7.

The relationship to Series 63 is this.  Both Series 65 and 66 will satisfy the Series 63 requirement in states that require a 63.

These days the only people who take Series 63 are those who are ill informed about the availability of the 65/66 substitution.

There are still a few states that do not require the Series 65 or 66, in those states rookies may be encouraged to take Series 63 by short sighted management that doesn't realize the power of being ready for what is coming instead of simply satisfying the current requirement.

There are states that never did require the Series 63, but have adopted the Series 65 or 66.  In those states there would be no need to take Series 63 because it's not required, and if you seek registration in a state that does your 65 or 66 will substitute for the 63.

You're dodging the issue...that quote was on the previous page in that thread and quoted lower on the same page I posted.  You said it and it was flat-out wrong.  Some here might have a shred of respect for you if you'd just acknowledge that you were wrong and move on.

As for me, I'm done with this.  I've proven my case and there's nothing you can say to undo your error.

What a wasted afternoon...you're pathetic.

Why would you link to something claiming to give me an ass whupping and then use things that are not in that link to support yourself?

It appears that you just fabricate things.  Why would you do that?

As for what you claim was said, the statement was "I believe that Series 66 is required if you have a Series 7."

As it turns out weaklings can sit for the much longer Series 65.  Not at my former employer, but at firms that have lower standards.

If that's the worst thing you can say about somebody it's pale indeed.

Indyone & putsy/newbie et.al what do your posts have to do with the topic at hand.  Please take your mud slinging to the PMs. Thanks

Sep 22, 2006 2:36 am

Yeah, in a weak moment, I took Nasty’s bait and started slinging.  I’d be happy to not exchange blows at all to be honest, but sometimes, it’s difficult to resist.  This was a pretty ugly hijack, I’ll confess…

I’d say at 1172 posts it’s been more than one wasted afternoon. If 10 posts is an afternoon, then 1172 posts is 4 months. Yikes.

[quote=Cowboy93] Wizzy…just post a link to the Jones recruiting website and be done with it.

Geez. I think everyone knows that Jones is the only place to be ethical and

successful. Everyone else is a bunch of crooks, and NONE of their clients are

satisfied…that’s why Jones has the highest avg AUM/advisor (er, rep) I

guess…



A new advisor (I’m sorry, represntative) simply doesn’t require full time help

to service their clients, because they have none.[/quote]



IMO the reason Jones still calls us Reps is because of the ongoing bickering about “advising” vs “selling.” If I recall, and I most certainly could be mistaken, some CFP, CFA, RIA or some other group is suing the NASD because brokers misrepresent themselves as "advisors."

In any case, my clients don’t call me IR or FA, they call me Incredible.

Check your math, junior...it's been 16 months and an average of under 2.5 posts per day (I believe your average is higher).  You might also try to get back on topic and quit hijacking threads to sling feeble insults at me.
