About this episode
Thomas Edison once said, "many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up." For Greg Campion, CFA, those weren't just some words cobbled together by one of the world's greatest inventors, they were a reality. In his vigorous pursuit of the CFA® charter, Greg ran into many challenges including failing the exam. But sometimes life gives us an opportunity to discover who we truly are and realize our dreams no matter how far out of reach they may seem.
On this episode of My CFA® Charter Story, we hear how Greg responded to failure and discover important lessons we can use to move forward from setbacks in our own lives. Greg's motivation to succeed not only resulted in him earning the CFA charter, but he also now literally writes the book on the exam process. CFA® Confidential: What It Really Takes to Become a Chartered Financial Analyst is a top seller on Amazon. Be sure to listen to Greg's incredible story for some true motivation.
