Essentially I have made the decision to start studying for the CFA exam. I am currently working as a Forensic Accountant but looking to get into the finance industry and out of typical accounting. I have talked to friends in the finance industry and a couple have suggested studying for both the CAIA and the CFA. Has anyone done this and also what books would you suggest? It seems the Schweser guides are popular, do I need to also get additional books for the CFA. As far as the CAIA I have not seen much in the way of books. BTW I am planning to sit for the CFA in June 2006 and with my girlfriend a full time first year law student I have the time and motivation to study and do something with myself. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

What exactly does the term "crash" mean? Is it when the price of the shares go down too low? And how do they determine the price of the shares?

I know it's a vague question, but let's say you had £5,000 and wanted to know the best way of investing money to:

a) see a quick return
b) have a safe invetsment
c) see the greatest return

i know that no one method can satisfy all three of these points, but it would be interesting to know if anyone has had any positive / negitive experiences investing money.

I am convinced that the price of wheat and uranium will go up.

But I do not have access to any futures markets. So how can I invest in these two particular commodities ?

Do I have to buy stocks of actual farming companies and mine companies ? The problem by buying stocks, and not the commodities themselves, is that a higher commodity prices will not always translate to a higher stock price for the companies that produce these commodities in the first place.

Are there other alternatives than buying these companies' stocks?

Hope that someone can help.

I've played around with this scenario (as I'm sure many other have): say you win the lottery. What would be the best, and most stable, way to invest this so that you could live off a steady, fixed residual income based on the winnings, WITHOUT spending any of the winnings?
So say the reward was $1,000,000... is there a steady investment that would guarantee you 5% (so roughly the same as making $50K a year pre-tax).

Any thoughts about this? What would the best investment scenario be for a situation like this?

(and the irony is, I never play the lottery... but it's still fun to speculate)
