I get the "major investments" for the future but I'm unsure if they can change the direction as the competitors eat their lunch.
Canceled my buy on Intel- thanks for the advice.

Not investing but a finance question for all the geniuses who frequent CP!

I really need some sort of finance class/read as I work on becoming an administrator. I'm almost there and I think I'll pass my tests with a job waiting for me, but my business background is next to zero. I went to college for 7 years and never had a SINGLE, not one, business class. I am all science through and through. I have a much stronger clinical side than most administrators in healthcare but the financial side is lacking. I can read our financial reports and such but it just doesn't feel as meaningful as I think it should.

Any thoughts on a good read to start with?

Have you considered looking at courses through places like Coursera?

Thanks.

I haven't done any sort of business finance class through them, but I've taken a few SQL and Python courses which were well done. It all depends on the actual provider, but they have reviews and sample content in many cases. Seems like it's around $50/month, though it's been a while.

Edx and Udemy are others I hear a lot about but haven't personally done.

Check out the Great Courses collection.

https://www.wondrium.com/lp/t3/tgc-c...xoCpH0QAvD_BwE


You can get these for free at your local library. These are college-level courses taught by experts. I have done dozens of these just to improve my general knowledge.

I would work backwards from what qualifications an administrator has and what job listings for one look like.

That may help you narrow your focus and find the best targets.

I think health care administration is a different breed of cat than like managerial accounting or corporate finance coursework.

I would look there. I looked at audible and there is some stuff there. Maybe listen to a few books in the general field to get some background and then get into the technical side.

You're right, and it looks like it still is at a glance. I can't exactly recall why mine wasn't. It was an actual certificate program through a university, so maybe that's why it cost a little.

Regardless, I definitely prefer courses rather than books, personally. I learn a lot more when I have to do stuff with it.

I've used Udemy for several things. It can be quite good. I'm fairly certain there are courses for taking your series 6, etc. I'd imagine Lew can find something that fits.

They have sales about as frequently as that local furniture place that's been having the going out of business sale for the last 15 years.

Always amazing growth potential for a small amount of money if you start early.
