I passed my series 7 today! Thank you Ken your videos have been a huge help for my study material. I want to making sure I can inspire anyone who gets discourage, YOU CAN DO IT! I know at times when I would get overwhelmed from studying and balancing work/family. I would read through the comments and see so many people post they passed. I thought to myself “so can I”
A message for you to keep pushing!

[laureng]

I also associate G.O. Bonds by thinking of (government oppression = taxes)

[michaelsantana]

Ken just wanted to say thank you so much for the videos you make. I used them for SIE as well as other materials and they helped me a lot and I passed. Now I'm using these videos for my series 7. I know this is a small niche to make videos on but I hope the good karma gets back to you. I can't imagine how many people you've helped with these.

the millage tip is so easy to remember, way better than the book! thanks, Ken!

Just a note about the 529 gift limit: I believe it was recently changed to $16, 000/person or $80, 000 for the 5-year prepayment.

[KaterinePM]

Wow, This is one of my FAV videos! Things are finally clicking. Thank you, Ken!

Staten Islander here taking the 7 monday. Now I learned more about the Verrazanno!

[Lucky]

Great video, thank you! I was reading and rereading the same sections and not getting it. This format was a big help.

[Stavros_Steve_Deriziotis]

Grew up in Locust Valley, thanks for all your work and information!

[kawallawrx]

Just want to say thanks! Passed my series 7! Watched a ton of your videos!

[nehakashyap]

Ok so I watched tons of your videos and yes I did take a Kaplan live course but ofcourse I watched tons of your videos too and today passed the series 7 exam. Thank you ken. I heard myself saying boom boom in the exam lol, I dunno if it’s normal lol. Thanks again

[kinnisonsumner]

Ken- great content. Quick question, some bridges dont charge tolls down here in the south, is it safe to assume that not all bonds for bridges etc that dont have tolls/ user fees are GO bonds?

[ericaamenda]

I cannot find where you listed the links to calculate accretion and amortization. Help!
Also, thank you! This is the first video I've watched and you're way of lecturing is exactly what I needed! I'm struggling with reading comprehension and needed THIS! F's and all! Right up my alley. Love it!

[mianewton]

Question: for the S7 aside from STC and your videos… what vendor would you recommend to pair with that? Achievable or Kaplan?

[Indywealthplanning]

Why are premium bonds more likely to be called than discount bonds?

[wolfie]

off topic but can we say preferred stocks have capital appreciation ?
Also bonds ?

[viniciusgarofalo]

Amazing video, one of the bests. Only one note.. about Gross Revenue - Debt First | and | Net Revenue Operations First. I think its the opposite. I did 2 questions on STC that showed that. Example: Revenue bond is backed by a pledfe of net revenues. this indicates that : "The fisrt use of net revenues is to pay the debt service on the bonds". What you think about it ? Regards !

[ILikeGuns]

If the question is: Does 529 have contribution limits. Is answer yes because of the state limits?

[giggachadbrain]

so much of these videos are repeat of sie stuff, feels like a waste of time
