I hate this book with a passion it’s wordy boring makes fuck all sense and tortured me for an entire semester of uni it’s going in the good reads because of how much I hated the subject and how much physical effort it took to read

Okay guys, textbooks are wordy, I get that. But I have love for the authors who can modify the writing to make it either save me time or make the learning process more exciting. I don’t regret this, but I surely do not enjoy it. While I think it’s premature for me to judge material and concepts, these definitely made my Investment Analysis 2 class feel like a piece of cake, with a lot of translatable ideology.
