Series 65 Exam Free Audio Lesson 8 2024
Series 65 Exam Free Audio Lesson 8 2024
Series 65 Exam Free Audio Lesson 8 2024 is a lesson for the Series 65 Exam which can lead to the candidate being licensed as an Investment Advisor Representative.
The other possible exam would be the series 66 examination.
What is the Series 65 Exam?
The Series 65 Exam
The Series 65 is another path to becoming an Investment Advisor Representative (IAR)
Sometimes called the IAR in a box
Unlike the Series 66 Exam the Series 65 exam does not have the Series 7 Requirement
The Series 65 unlike broker-dealer exams (think the Series 7 Exam) the Series 65 Exam requires no company sponsor.
When taking the Series 65 to join an RIA firm as a IAR, candidates must complete the exam within 180 minutes. A passing score is 72%, which translates to correctly answering 94 of the 130 scored questions. The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, which administers the exam, does not release Series 65 pass rates. But this is a TOUGH exam, many people do not pass on the first try.
The test covers financial industry regulation, securities law, ethics, investments and economics. All these topics factor into a financial advisor’s day-to-day work. Most candidates devote considerable time to studying for the Series 65.
Different States have different requirements in become an Investment Advisor Representative (IAR) so check your states department of securities licensing to find out its requirements.
 
 

 
Series 65 vs Series 66 Exam
The Series 65 exam is designed for those who do not have a Series 7 license. The content of both exams are similar though the Series 65 will be more heavily concentrated on Investment products and economics (like you would need to learn for the SIE and Series 7 Exam). … The Series 66 exam has a little more State law (such as what you will find in the Series 63 Exam) and some esoteric investment products.
Our audio lessons for both the Series 65 and Series 66 cover the material you would need to learn for the SIE and Series 7 exam so it may be a little more than you need for the Series 66 but we want you to be fully prepared!
The only difference between the two series of exam lessons (the 65 and 66) is that the Series 66 exam also covers the material needed for the Series 63 exam.

Series 65 Exam Lesson Supplement Interview with Whistleblower Atty. Mark Pugsley 2024
S
Series 65 Podcast Interview with Whistleblower Attorney Mark Pugsley 2024
This is an interview with Whistleblower Attorney Mark Pugsley while this is not information that is required for the Series 7 Exam I think you will be a more knowledgeable advisor if you are aware of the information contained in this interview.
Mark Pugsley is quite famous for his part in bringing down Milton Trevor of Nikola corporation.  He was featured prominently in the podcast BAD BETS
This is information about Mark Pugsley from his website
“Mark Pugsley has been handling securities disputes, financial fraud and whistleblower cases for 28 years. His whistleblower practice includes preparing and filing whistleblower tips with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Commodities Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), he also handles False Claims Act or “Qui Tam” lawsuits, FINRA arbitrations and other types of investment disputes.
Mark is based in our Utah office, the state which boasts the largest number of Ponzi schemes per capita in the country. He has been recognized by Super Lawyers, Best Lawyers, Benchmark Plaintiffs, and Martindale Hubbell as one of the top securities lawyers in the country. He is licensed to practice law in Utah and California.
Mark represents whistleblowers in a number of high-profile ongoing cases, including the whistleblowers in the Washakie Renewable Energy scam in which executives pleaded guilty to criminal charges in a $1 billion biodiesel tax fraud scheme.  He also represents the whistleblowers in the Nikola Motors case who uncovered widespread fraud by the CEO, Trevor Milton.  The whistleblower report to the SEC in the Nikola case led to a $125 million settlement by the company with the SEC, and Mr. Milton was charged civilly and criminally with securities fraud, among other charges. Another of his whistleblower clients uncovered an ongoing $200 million Ponzi scheme that led to civil and criminal actions by the DOJ, SEC and State regulators.  These cases are ongoing.
Significant recoveries for his whistleblower, investment fraud and FINRA Arbitration clients include the following:

* Representation of two whistleblowers in an SEC whistleblower case that was approved for an award in April of 2021. His clients were awarded 30% of the $9,384,253 in ordered fines and penalties – the maximum award possible.
* Represented the Declarant in a whistleblower case filed against Vivint Smart Home Inc.. On January 6, 2021 the Justice Department announced that Vivint had agreed to pay the United States $3.2 million to resolve the case. His client will receive a significant reward.
* Represented a client in an $11 million CFTC whistleblower case that was approved for an award in January of 2020. His client will receive a significant portion of all restitution and civil penalties collected by the CFTC.
* Representation of three clients in a 5-day trial in Utah State Court where his clients were awarded compensatory damages in excess of $3 million, $2 million in punitive damages, and attorney’s fees.
* Represented a bankruptcy trustee and trustee of a private actions trust pursuing the claims of over 400 victims of a Ponzi scheme against a national life insurance company for securities fraud and the negligent employment of the agents who perpetrated the scheme for over a decade. The parties reached an 8-figure settlement in 2018.
* Represented 15 clients in a FINRA arbitration case alleging more than $6 million in out of pocket damages involving a rogue broker from a national brokerage firm. The firm settled the case shortly before the arbitration hearing in Au...

Series 65 vs Series 66 Exam
The Series 65 exam is designed for those who do not have a Series 7 license. The content of both exams are similar though the Series 65 will be more heavily concentrated on Investment products and economics (like you would need to learn for the SIE and Series 7 Exam). … The Series 66 exam has a little more State law (such as what you will find in the Series 63 Exam) and some esoteric investment products.
Our audio lessons for both the Series 65 and Series 66 cover the material you would need to learn for the SIE and Series 7 exam so it may be a little more than you need for the Series 66 but we want you to be fully prepared!
The only difference between the two series of exam lessons (the 65 and 66) is that the Series 66 exam also covers the material needed for the Series 63 exam.

Series 65 Podcast Logan Keller Interview
From Apache Helicopter Pilot to Financial Advisor: The Journey of Logan Keller
In the world of finance, career trajectories often follow conventional paths through business schools and internships. However, every so often, there emerges an individual whose journey into the financial realm takes a unique and unexpected route. Logan Keller is one such individual whose story is as inspiring as it is unconventional.
Logan Keller, a graduate from the University of North Dakota, began his professional journey with a dream to serve his country. After completing his education, he embarked on a path that led him to become an Apache helicopter pilot in the U.S. Army. His dedication and commitment to service were unwavering until an unforeseen injury altered the course of his life.
Following his medical discharge from the army, Logan found himself at a crossroads, searching for a new purpose and direction. It was during this period of transition that he discovered his interest in financial products, an interest that would ultimately shape his future career path.
Driven by a newfound passion, Logan delved into the world of finance with vigor and determination. He recognized the importance of acquiring the necessary knowledge and credentials to thrive in the industry. With this goal in mind, he turned to audio lessons to supplement his learning and prepare for the rigorous examinations ahead.
His journey toward becoming a Registered Investment Advisor (RIA) was marked by perseverance and a relentless pursuit of excellence. Logan dedicated himself to mastering the intricacies of financial markets and investment strategies, undertaking the challenging Series 7 and Series 66 exams with diligence and determination.
In a recent interview, Logan Keller shared insights into his remarkable journey and the lessons he has learned along the way. When asked about the transition from military service to the financial services industry, Logan reflected on the parallels between the two seemingly disparate worlds.
Both the military and finance demand discipline, adaptability, and a willingness to embrace challenges. While the nature of the work may differ, the principles of leadership and resilience remain constant.
Logan’s military background imbued him with a sense of duty and a commitment to excellence that continues to drive his success in the financial arena. His ability to navigate complex situations with composure and clarity of purpose sets him apart as a formidable force in his field.
As Logan embarks on this new chapter of his professional journey as an RIA agent, he remains steadfast in his commitment to serving his clients with integrity and expertise. His unique blend of military discipline and financial acumen positions him as a trusted advisor and advocate for those seeking to secure their financial futures.
In an industry often characterized by its complexities and uncertainties, Logan Keller stands as a beacon of inspiration for aspiring professionals and seasoned veterans alike. His journey serves as a testament to the power of resilience, adaptability, and unwavering determination in the pursuit of one’s passions.
As Logan continues to chart his course in the world of finance, one thing remains abundantly clear: his unwavering commitment to excellence and his steadfast dedication to making a meaningful difference in the lives of those he serves will undoubtedly shape the trajectory of his future endeavors.
In the ever-evolving landscape of finance, Logan Keller’s journey serves as a poignant reminder that true success is not defined by the paths we tread, but by the resilience and determination with which we navigate them.

What is the Series 65 Exam?
The Series 65 Exam
The Series 65 is another path to becoming an Investment Advisor Representative (IAR)
Sometimes called the IAR in a box
Unlike the Series 66 Exam the Series 65 exam does not have the Series 7 Requirement
The Series 65 unlike broker-dealer exams (think the Series 7 Exam) the Series 65 Exam requires no company sponsor.
When taking the Series 65 to join an RIA firm as a IAR, candidates must complete the exam within 180 minutes. A passing score is 72%, which translates to correctly answering 94 of the 130 scored questions. The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, which administers the exam, does not release Series 65 pass rates. But this is a TOUGH exam, many people do not pass on the first try.
The test covers financial industry regulation, securities law, ethics, investments and economics. All these topics factor into a financial advisor’s day-to-day work. Most candidates devote considerable time to studying for the Series 65.
Different States have different requirements in become an Investment Advisor Representative (IAR) so check your states department of securities licensing to find out its requirements.
 


 
Series 65 vs Series 66 Exam
The Series 65 exam is designed for those who do not have a Series 7 license. The content of both exams are similar though the Series 65 will be more heavily concentrated on Investment products and economics (like you would need to learn for the SIE and Series 7 Exam). … The Series 66 exam has a little more State law (such as what you will find in the Series 63 Exam) and some esoteric investment products.
Our audio lessons for both the Series 65 and Series 66 cover the material you would need to learn for the SIE and Series 7 exam so it may be a little more than you need for the Series 66 but we want you to be fully prepared!
The only difference between the two series of exam lessons (the 65 and 66) is that the Series 66 exam also covers the material needed for the Series 63 exam.
