Anyone seen the new CapOne Venture X card? They’re basically paying you to take it for the first year. Seems like a great compliment to my Amex Platinum

Each Capital One credit card application leaves not one, not two, but three Hard Pulls on your credit reports. I’ll never

Huh? Did they change this or have I just been too dumb to notice. 99% sure theres only 1 hard pull on my record when I got the plain Venture card 2 years ago. Maybe 3 at same time and the credit companies consolidate them into a single pull?

Just saw it, looks dope

Just called CapOne about upgrading my old QuickSilver. You aren’t eligible for the spend bonus if you upgrade 🤦‍♂️

The Forbes article on it says yes.

I'm a first time home buyer and got pre qualified back in Jan. Hard pull on credit docked me a few points. I wasn't able to close and now considering another hard pull for a different mortgage company offering better rates.
I'm new to this and this may be a stupid q but I'm looking for input from the bowl on whether to do this hard pull and get pre-qualified with a few more mortgage companies. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you

Do you recommend we go for a serviced/luxury apartment (e.g. Montaje, 345 Harrison, etc.) or hire a broker to get a “normal” apartment?

Any managed buildings recommendations within our budget? Also, what are some good brokers we could work with?

Thanks!

Told a friend of mine in tech I was considering moving to BCG. He asked me if I would have to move to Boston.

I followed up by asking what he thought the top consulting firms were. "I'd guess PwC and then McKinsey are the best. I've also heard of KPMG, Deloitte, and Bain, but I don't know much about them."

Just a reminder that outside our bubble no-one really cares about firm prestige etc.
