Part of the satisfaction of finishing any book is logging it in Goodreads, a textbook is no exception.

Doesn’t feel right to give this a rating. But I’ll say I don’t recommend for recreational use.

Now time to pass this test!

Update: I passed

5/5 - passed my SIE

Read all 467 pages although will not confirm or deny if it was of my own free will.

Quick review:
✅ Can now speak fluent Finance Bro
✅ I’m now bullish on this book for passing the exam
✅ Know what a stock is
✅ Regulation Best Interest lives rent free in my head

Would I read it again?
Absolutely not.

Would I recommend it to others trying to pass the SIE?
Yes. This book is like a bond—low on excitement, high on return. 💀

live, laugh, leverage 🤪

Can’t in good faith give this a rating, but I’ll say this is one of the better textbooks I’ve read when it comes to clarity. Wish they streamlined it more for the exam itself, but oh well. Passed anyway.

A riveting storyline, fantastic character development, and a real page-turner. Get over the regulatory chapter and you'll find yourself at a tear-jerking end.

The feat of reading this book front to back deserves to be memorialized on goodreads.
