Any families here who have solar panels LEASED without purchase option? Anyone try to break the lease? We inherited a house and need to sell it. The solar panels lease is expensive and it doesnt even save us in electricity which is why i think buyers also dont want to buy the house w the solar panels lease transfer. Curious to know if anyone has successfully broken their lease and if yes how. The only option sunnova gave me was prepay it meaning 70k out the pocket

I have fidelity for my 401k, would they be good to open a taxable investment account with, or are there better options?

Interested in working in PE, but experiences align more with the Ops side (3 YOE in strategic value creation). Is there a significant difference in total comp potential between ops and investments roles? Not sure how to make a case to break into investments with minimal DD experience, so thinking about Ops recruitment (Associate). Would also be grateful to learn about potential strategies non-DD focused consultants have used to ultimately break into investment teams.

Anyone else just sitting around waiting for the ax to drop? I'm a soon to be 2nd year corporate associate who has seen work completely dry up. My utilization held pretty steady around 50% immediately after shutdown, but August was below 15 billables with no appreciable work in the pipeline. Aside from letting people know I'm available and doing pro-bono/CLE, it's starting to feel like a serious "covidcation" leading to termination.
