Tonight - debating going and playing soccer. Read formulae sheets.

Read notes tomorrow ~ 3 hours. Have my wife quiz me on formulae after that off and on until supper. Then that's it.

I spent the morning going through my notes, this afternoon watching 4 episodes of Grey's Anatomy and am about to head out for dinner. Tomorrow a last brief read through GIPS and that's it.....my brain needs a rest!

You're right The Show, should have been more specific

Doing an hour of corporate governance tonight. Reviewing some notes and formulas from 8-12 tomorrow morning. Then I'm dragging my @ss to the golf course for 9 holes and some relaxitime.

It's a scorcher in Dublin today, 22C and sun, sun, sun!

T* is easy:

[tcg(1-Pi-Pd-Ptcg)]/(1-Piti-Pdtd-Pcgtcg)

Bottom is r* without r in front.

i thought that high interest rates are bad for LIABILITIES due to disintermediation and surrender.

but low interest rates are bad for ASSETS due to reinvestment risk / cash flow risk

Interest rates rising for life insurance company's is not a good thing

lower prepayments are a bad thing for life insurance company's (cash flow risk)
