  • Netflix has become the biggest time waster of our generation. There are so many things you could do to improve your situation or the situations of others rather than spend hours a day watching Netflix. This is a discussion of some better uses of your time. Side hustles can be a great way to earn additional streams of income, and cutting out Netflix will give you much more time to spend on other things. Stop watching Netflix!!!
    If you have an idea of something you want me to cover in depth, please let me know because I take your requests seriously. Will be back with more CFA Exam tips in a couple of weeks so please submit more questions you would like to hear answered. Love you all!

    Woow I'm from Mexico and some months ago I find your channel. I'm CFA Candidate Level I and I'm going to do my exam in February 2021, just this night I was going to open a account in Netflix, now I'm not going to do that. Thank you AJ, you inspire me for continue my study and avoid distractions.

    Hey AJ; I found your channel right as I was preparing for my February CFA Level I. Your guide on making a study plan has really helped a lot. I might say that very few people can stick to their plan 100%, but having that structure has really helped in maintaining progress, even if it's just 4 hours a day and weekends off. Thanks
    Do you have any advice for the class of '20 finance graduates? I worked hard in school, and have a lot of research experience publishing papers with my professors, but it's hard to get a start in the industry because they don't think I have "industry experience." Thank you!

      Hi Jack, glad that I could be of any help!
      My best advice in that situation is to network as much as you can. Typically this is done via email, phone, and LinkedIn right now. Make an excel sheet of 100 places you might want to work and get as much info as you can about them. Then contact them consistently asking for an opportunity!

    Thx for the video. Interesting thoughts!
    I personally consider quitting Netflix, but at least I always ALWAYS watch it in a foreign language, which I have learned.
    For exampel:
    Watching Narcos has definitly helped me to speak a more smooth Spanish.
    But watching stuff in my mothertongue is a massiv waste of time.
    Speaking 8 languages and use them at work and in daily life 🙋🏼‍♂️

    I love movies, I must admit it... but only GOOD movies. I tried Netflix for just one month, and it specializes completely in out-of-date, crap films that were never good in the first place, or lousy, low budget films that went straight to video. Total garbage!! What the hype is about Netflix is totally mystifying to me.

    I'm a bit disappointed that you HAD to bring hustle culture/side hustles into it. Replacing all of the Netflix watching with money making is missing the point and can just lead to a whole slew of mental health problems in itself. Sometimes you just need to do something because it's good for your body or your mental health and just brings you joy. Always being told that your hobby should be a side hustle is disheartening.

    U talked about deeper sense of fulfillment , it's hard to see something that hasn't happened yet , can u share your own journey and how the work that u do leads to that deeper sense of satisfaction and achievement , like I'm studying for CFA but I find it difficult to imagine that that the work I'll do in the future will actually mean something coz itll have to do mostly with money and numbers crunching whereas watching Netflix makes u experience lots of emotions with very little effort

    I enjoy Netflix to a certain degree but now, I've noticed a repulsive and sickening trend to promote and normalize certain lifestyles that will never be a part of something i'm willing to pay to see and despite requesting that the content description fit what's actually in the film or series , which would give me the choice to view or not , They continue to willfully and deceptively omit certain language that would afford the opportunity of choice. I will not continue to pay for it and i have had enough !!! By the way , you can't block movies or shows if you haven't been given accurate info on what they contain to begin with.
