Kind of surprised that Bieber is only worth 265 mil

My bank makes you fill out a form if you want to work in the office for each individual day. It’s largely empty from what I hear. What are the risks if I were to go in and “borrow” an office chair for my new apt? How about a monitor?

Financial advisors—how do you prepare for a meeting with a new client? What information do you need to gather? What information is useful for your pitch? Where do you find this information?

I have been working remotely since covid getting nothing but positive reviews. My company is not remote friendly and is now telling me I have to return to the office or I lose my job. I just found out a co-worker had a remote position created for them, without a job posting, without an interview and without the experience required (normally a license or certification would be mandatory). I understand life isn’t fair but is there an ethical problem with this?

I got laid off from deloitte. Now i work in cre asset management. I don't love my job. I am on visa (opt stem) . I need to work on finding happiness with my work to be more productive and be happy.

Hey LEK fishes or anyone that has any advice. I recently accepted a job offer for the boston office but over the past weekend, my circumstances have changed and I’d need to stay in NYC for family and would probably have to take back my acceptance.

I’m so depressed, have been for years, and don’t see it getting better. I’ve tried everything from therapy, exercise, psychiatry, journaling, self help books, healthy diet, etc. what else is there?

Is anyone else exhausted with their consulting staff thinking they’re gods? Being treated with disrespect constantly by them is so draining. How do you manage your responses to them that’s not a 30 second turnaround?

Best way to go about PE / corporate strategy recruiting either for this year (realizing it’s late) or next year?
