I'm thinking of going for my CFA, however I know its a long shot since I don't even have my bachelors degree. I currently work with many people who already have their CFA so I'm praying I may be able to self-study and use them as resources when I need help (I know they would be more than happy to assist). Just wanted to see if anyone else is on the same boat as me or knows of anyone so I can use that as motivation that I'm not completely crazy. I currently work as an associate relationship manager so even if I don't pass the exams learning the information will still be extremely beneficial.

Hi @bigdreams, don't let the bachelors degree deter you. You have sufficient work experience and you seem to meet the registration requirements. Self studying and hard work in learning the concepts will get you through. And no, you're not completely crazy. Only ever so slightly ;) We are all half mad here anyway but that's because you need that to pass the CFA exams :))
