YES! Mines actually isn’t an agency but works as a service for agencies and is trying to create an agency like structure. They’re all guys 5-10 years older than me given that it’s a small company. They’re all so awesome and so nice, but they’ve also known each other for years and I’m very private so it’s weird. I’ll miss them when my internship is over but I do feel like I don’t fit and it’s kind of my fault and the specific situation.

Should I be selling off the non - etf stocks at some point? Or do you just hold those for ever if they don’t go to shit (e.g. should have sold off my PLTR a long time ago but since i was mostly just playing there i have held) ? When to get out? How to tell if you’ve held long enough to avoid short term cap gains?

Should this exempt me from a cost of living increase due the adjusted salary 5 months after we agreed to this?
