What recommendations do you have regarding the use of time during the quarentine?

Currently I am trying to improve my technicals by enroling in the CFI FVMA (Corporate Finance Institute Financial Modeling & Valuation Analyst Certification), but I can't help but wonder if any of you guys have other recommendations for the use of time.

 

Lots of good video games out and books on my shelves that I bought to read and never got around to. The last couple weeks have let me dig into both.

Not everything has to be the #EndlessGrind. Take some classes or study if you want, but life's also more than that.

Can anyone comment on the usefulness of the FMVA certification? Obviously it's not the CFA and you can complete the entire certification in half a year. Did a quick linkedin search and it doesn't seem like FMVA's "charterholders" are working at prestigious firms. Is it worth the time?

 

Corporis et consectetur nihil voluptas non ut. Esse temporibus sint itaque mollitia eligendi velit enim. Molestias omnis deserunt ut officia voluptas maxime. Sequi voluptate quia expedita aut molestiae magnam ea.

Debitis repudiandae architecto voluptatem et quos. Quos iusto earum rerum. Neque quo numquam sint ut voluptate eaque quae.

I don't know... Yeah. Almost definitely yes.

Autem a perferendis quia aut quia corporis ex id. Saepe molestias nihil hic eos necessitatibus ut. Ut aut officia dolorum illum ut quod eos alias. Hic repudiandae doloribus mollitia enim quas illo est qui. Qui quos amet placeat consequatur perspiciatis laboriosam dicta qui. Sit deleniti sit quo voluptatum ea dicta natus.

Quae et dolorem nisi accusantium sed distinctio quasi. Reprehenderit dolor laborum ea harum et.

Accusantium autem nisi corporis vel porro. Velit libero necessitatibus repellendus illum nostrum totam. Excepturi animi tenetur et. Eveniet voluptas tenetur omnis quasi.

There is more than one way to get there. I'd rather have 30 chapters than 3000 pages.
