1st Yr Research

A case study is defined as “a report of case materials obtained while working with an individual, a group, a community, or an organization. Case Studies illustrate a problem; indicate a means for solving a problem; and/or shed light on needed research, clinical applications, or theoretical materials” (APA, 2010, p. 11). The goal of this paper is for me to conduct a case study on myself and explain what I have learned about research at an introductory level, and how I evaluate or critique it from a biblical, Christian perspective.

Investing behavior should be driven by information, analysis, and self-discipline, not by emotion or ‘hunch.’

The wealth management or financial planning professions provide financial planning services and investment advice to clients for high net profit. The essential goal of any financial profession is to sustain and increase the long-term wealth of their clients. Since they manage huge amount of money for other people, they must also be ethical, trustworthy and free of any criminal record involving robbery, fraud or intentional mismanagement. Thus, they should understand complex financial documents, financial regulations and legal restrictions, not only good command of investments and financial planning.

At that time my heart dropped out of my body.

In the article, Advisors Involved in Financial Planning, authors Mendlowitz and Kess talks about how financial advisors are people oriented and want what is best for their clients. The authors prove that the difficulty of the financial advising processes is typically overlooked by others by stating, “The different kinds of financial advisors and their role in the overall financial planning process is difficult” (Pg.66). Many might think that financial advisors have an easy job, but there is more to it than telling people to save small amounts of money here and there. Advisors must go through several specific steps to figure out the exact amounts their clients must save. The author of this article talks about situations that a financial advisor might go through as well as how the advisor should

Everyone knows there's a lot of responsibility that comes with being a first generation student that plans to go and get a college education/degree whose family comes from a foreign country. People do not understand why I feel I have so much of a responsibility on my shoulders. However I now understand why there is so much responsibility that comes with being a first generation student that plans to go and get a college education/degree with family from a foreign country, thanks to my grandmother’s wise words. She said “ being a first generation student that plans to go and get a college education/degree with family from a foreign country isn’t about your success, it's about the success you bring to the family name, the pride you bring to the family/country and moreover the success you bring will represent your parents hard work has truly paid off”, at the time she said this I was only 12 years old so I didn't quite understand what she meant but it has stuck in my mind ever since. Now that I’m more mature I understand what she meant. I believe that my success or failure is no longer just benefiting or hurting me, if I fail that means I fail my family and my people and that is why going to college is so important to me. In this paper I’m going to write about what high standards mean to me, my goals, activities I’m involved in

Thank you so much for your patiently waiting on this. I will defiantly consider you 30 day notice to be the day that you first were asking on the change in enrollment. Thankfully I do have the ability to make the care that you need flexible. At this time of year enrollment doesn’t tend to change much, so even if the contract is canceled, I am positive there will be spots available to Clara and Caden, whenever needed.

Wooden (qtd. in Baer) states that "success is peace of mind, which is a direct result of self-satisfaction in knowing you did your best to become the best you are capable of becoming". Many students end up taking classes that they do not necessarily need or classes that are hard for them to succeed in. The result in not being able to drop a class within the certain time period results in students receiving an W (withdrawal) on their transcript, which not only affects their overall GPA, but may even eventually lead the student to end up on academic probation. As a junior at Cosumnes River College I think it is very important that the drop date for classes to be extended to a 3-week time period because students end up taking the wrong courses, there would be no negative affect on mental health, and most importantly students would have a higher chance of success.

Job knowledge, technical skills, and communication skills will help the Registered Financial Advisor’s overall performance. The Registered Financial Advisor has to exhibit a certain level of knowledge before he is allowed to give financial advice. This knowledge is tested through the Series 6, Series 63, Series 65, and the life insurance exams. In addition, the Registered Financial Advisor has options to increase financial knowledge through the attainment of different financial designations. Moreover, I have obtained the following financial designations: Chartered Life Underwriter (CLU), and Chartered Financial Consultant (CHFC). The CLU designation teaches financial advisers how to fully serve the diverse needs of their individual and

Throughout this course I have learned many things about research at an introductory level. Research is a critical part of all of our lives in many ways. God blesses each of us with a degree of common sense and we all learn from observing others even as babies, we learned behaviors and skills by observing our parents. Walking through experiences throughout life teach us a lot we need to know as well but sometimes we have to take a better approach when we need to learn about certain things. Many of us know that what works in some situations or with certain individuals doesn’t always work or is the safest option for another situation. Controlled and precisely organized study allows scientists to compare and examine contrasting methods and concepts, also helps them to discover various approaches and be able to learn from individual’s behaviors and experiences. I will act as the case study throughout this paper in order to observe what I have learned about.

To begin, my second month as a seventh grader at Pinelands has been different. It was definitely different from my first month, because now I am used to all of the middle school things(lockers, changing classes, etc.). Pinelands is a pretty big school, considering I came from Frog Pond and that was what I considered big. I’ve also joined after school clubs, and had my first middle school halloween. It is a lot different from what I’m used to; now you wear your costume for the whole day. A few of the other GATE girls and I even did a group costume, and it was so much fun.

The analysis was conducted by deriving additional information from available financial data and proceeding with an interpretation of the results in light of qualitative information. The group developed decision lists for a BUY or DON’T BUY recommendation and these were compared against relevant factors that
