Wishing my classmate success
Yesterday, I had lunch with a long-lost high school classmate. Ron-J, as we fondly call him during our high school years, is probably one of the smartest if not the smartest guy I've ever met in this generation (and maybe in my lifetime). He is our batch valedictorian, and also part of the UP-CBA team that bagged first place in the 2006 Intercollegiate Finance Competition. I learned that he will be taking his CFA Level 1 this December 2, 2007.

I am really glad that we bumped each other over yahoo messenger, which made our meeting possible. He is still the same Ron-J that we know in our class: smart yet humble. At least I found another person with whom I can seek guidance and tips in the CFA (if ever I decide to take it, which is probably not in the near future).

May Ron-J ace the CFA Level 1 exam this December 2, 2007. Thanks for offering me help for the realization of my future plans. Thank God that your workplace is just one building away from mine.
