I took CFA L1 December 2011 and thought I had a shot at L2 June 2012. It was my senior year in college, so I kind of gave up on that idea. Then I went to grad school and thought I had a shot at L2 this June. It was a one year master's and I was also focusing on getting a job, so I kind of gave up on that idea. Now the earliest I can take it is next June, 2.5 years after L1.The point I'm trying to make is that it might be a little hasty to start planning out multiple exams before you've even really started learning finance. Granted, you've got three degrees in as many decades, so maybe you'll actually pull it off. But most (enthusiastic) people go into CFA thinking they'll do L2 6 months after L1, and most of them don't make it.If you want a career suggestion, quant development. The JD is likely not beneficial for anything you'd be interested in within finance.
