As Partners, where do you invest your income for personal wealth creation ? Given independence requirements at most of the private partnerships - I assume real estate is a popular investment .

Hi,

I am 25 and am moving to NYC for a job that will pay 200K TC.

This is my first time making like serious money, so not entirely sure how I should break up my spending.

What percentage of my income should be going to savings/retirement? How much should I spend on rent?

How do you feel about subletting your apartment? I’ll be away for 5-6 weeks and don’t necessarily need that money but it would also be nice to just put it into investments. Or invest into new furniture. My bf is grossed out by that idea but we are not living together, so it’s not really his choice. How do I find a reliable person?

I will be moving to Australia from the US in a couple of months. I was wondering what would be the best way for me to transfer the money in the US bank account to Australia? Also what are some of the good banks that allow opening of accounts when the individual is not in Australia? Thank you for the help!

For the partners/mds/directors etc how are you protecting your money with the new administration? I’m assuming Biden’s plan will help the lower class but for the upper class I’m sure there have been strategies your advisors have been telling you. I currently have 20k in savings and feel like it’s just getting inflated away.

What price did you buy your bitcoin/litecoin/ethereum at? Have you sold any?

Can I ask at what age people are typically buying their homes here in LA? Wondering at what age people are able to take the plunge.

Does anyone in here participate in a 529 for their kids? Is it true that you can deduct contributions from your state tax? If so? Is it 1:1? Trying to decide how much to contribute for maximum tax benefits. TIA!

Besides working, how do you finance pros typically spend the weekend?

Any one doing home mortgage with First Republic? Do they have conditions like rollover old 401ks with them?

D 🐠, what was your take home in first year as principal? I assume you all get roughly 350 units and have to finance your buy in. What does that leave for your monthly draw? And after your insurance?

Any great personal finance/investment books to read? Or even YouTubers/Podcasters

Really looking into expanding my investment horizons — particularly about learning about how to allocate my investment portfolio. Also, always nice to learn about better ways to save and cutback.

My sons friend is looking to get into real estate . He is a junior at Indiana University. Looking for recommendations.

Anybody else still procrastinating on their tax prep? My accountant sends polite reminder emails, but combing through my credit card statements to tally expenses is overwhelming. Help.

Does anyone here have a Tesla? Should I do it???...

My CSR is up for renewal in July, currently the fee is $550. I have ~140K points including the sign up bonus from joining last year. I don't have any other cards yet. How should I handle this? (contd)

Has investing in your blog helped to bring in more paying customers?

Anyone get their stimulus check yet? Still waiting for mine.

Is there anyone from Canada here? I’m looking for some information on working out of the country, but selling insurance.
Thanks

We are going through a phase in the market where dev salaries are rocketing up, and we are VZI should not sell ourselves short and wonder where we stand.

Open to a new role more focused in the tech industry. Have nearly 5 years working in a top 5 Canadian bank.

Need career advice. Trying to break into a finance role, preferably an Analsyt role but I have no transferable experience. I worked as a mortgage loan officer (which is sales) for 2 years after college, but since mortgage is such a niche industry, no hard skills transfer and have no relevant undergrad internships unfortunately. I know I can essentially get any sales job I want in finance IE: financial advisor etc. but don’t want to be stuck in sales forever. Any advice?

FAR, what a pain..that’s all

Did anyone randomly get a $250 deposit in their account from the government? I think it’s a child tax credit but I don’t have kids. How do I investigate this?

If you’re currently making 53K/yr and have about 1yr 1/2 of experience in X position and the company you are interested in says on Glassdoor that the average salary for your position is 80K, would it be valid to ask for that if you get the opportunity to get an interview?

Looking for advice in context of being a EY SM that will be part of NewCo if it goes through. Would I be better off shooting for MD this year vs waiting 2-3 years for Partner?

How do PPMDs make sure when you are replacing an incumbent, you don't get handed down a broken system ? What sort of knowledge transfer and contractual framework do you get the client to agree to and how do you negotiate on that? I feel clients are not always honest and hide a lot of landmines which a consulting company can walk into and blamed for it.

Partners- At what point in your career did you feel like you had financially “made it”?

If an employee files a complaint about workplace behavior, do you treat them differently? I'm faced with reporting an SM for bullying and finding it near imposible to believe that it won't (cont'd)

I got into a complicated situation with a senior manager before. At the time I was new to the firm, and it was my first time in a big city. I never really said no, and didn’t know how acceptable cont

There's a huge perception from the staff levels that promotions are largely a popularity contest. Perhaps this is a lack of transparency in the process or just burnt staff. Is there truth to this?

Big4 partners, do you feel the journey has been worth it when gauging by the variables of money, family, sphere of influence, and happiness? Or industry still seems more alluring? Thanks for your wisdom.
