Anyone signed up or bought Hilton Grand Vacation Resort timeshare ? Any thoughts or input ? The numbers they pitched seemed great but once I took a step back and did my calculations it turned out to be not the greatest “in my prospective”, also did some reading on the reviews and the are mixed. Wondering what’s the input or feedback based on your experience

I have a phone screen with American Express. Does anyone know how many days of PTO is allotted?

Hey fam, I'm going to Banff in 2 weeks. How bad are the lines to get into parks for lake Louise and lake moraine. I'm staying at the kananaski resort for distance consideration

Woke up at 3:30 AM for an early morning flight.. Paid a small fee to upgrade to a window seat so that I could sleep. Was woken up not once, but TWICE by the middle seat guy opening MY window

Looking at full-time and application asks for expected salary and then expected total compensation as a number. How should I figure out the second? Health insurance, bonuses, life insurance, equity, PTO? I studied art, not math.

In 2023 I'm wanting to help make my management more effective. So, I'm looking for a book or a couple of books to gift my team this holiday season. I would like books that focus on communication and taking ownership. Any recommendations?

I just started a new job 2 months ago, benefits and PTO don’t start until 90 days in so I still have a month before I can take off any time, and today found out my company doesn’t offer paid maternity leave.
I’m really struggling handling the symptoms and maintaining my full time job. Thinking about looking for a part time job to have more time to myself through the pregnancy since I won’t be getting a paid leave anyways, but lost on where to start looking. Any recommendations?

A first for me, after 1.6 million miles. Thankful for a delay. The delay on the connector saved me a night at ord Hilton after the ludicrous delay on the first leg.t. Truly grateful united

How supportive are your companies when it comes to taking PTO for mental health days?

Has anyone been offered a status buy-up for 2021. ~$1700 short of United 1k this year and think my travel will increase a good bit starting next year. Think it could make sense, especially given the 2021 thresholds

Since we're headed towards cold weather and the holiday season, let's talk about how we can take care of ourselves during the fall/winter and beyond. For example, I'm buying a sun lamp because it's about to be 50 degrees and raining for 6 months 🤦🏻‍♀️.

Best areas to live in if have to commute to DTLA two days a week and partner has to travel to Riverside next year? Ideally we don't want to move twice.

Any good wedding ring sources aside from Blue Nile?

Hey folks - I have an inquiry on my credit for a gym membership I “failed to cancel”. I had previously left this gym as it closed during pandemic, and shifted to a new location. In doing so, I informed the gym I would be leaving. However, I recently checked my credit and saw that my membership had not been cancelled and had been sent to collections (prompting an inquiry and dropping my score).

Has anyone experienced this, and is aware of next steps to take here?

Currently 25 years old.
Goals:
* Own a home in a HCOL
* 2 kids (eventually)
* Retire at 50 on $125k/year.

Envelope math:
* $125k/year would require an investment portfolio of ~$3M.
* Targeting a $2M home (split with partner)
* 2 kids - $1M to raise both (including college fund, split with partner)
* $500K buffer for unexpected expenses
* 33% tax

Therefore, 6.5-7M retirement savings needed. To hit this (assuming 6% return after inflation), I’d need to save ~$110k/year.

How does this sound?

Pro Tip:

EY rejected me and emailed me again after 2 months for a Audit opening. Are they playing with my feelings?

Tax senior with CPA at small firm. Best way to get to Big 4 audit? (LA or OC) Went to non-target so little to no alumni at B4. I don’t mind the switch to a lower title since audit was always my preference and was never a fan of tax (stayed local for family).

Can anybody tell me does BOSCH support buyout option? Should a candidate serve 3 months of notice period strictly?

No one has an office, much less an assistant. Creative and account are different jobs with their own dress codes. But dumb, off brief ideas by white creatives do win.
