Hi everyone,

I am done with managerial round in Salesforce,how much time it will take to get back from the company whether I selected or not.

Anyone know anything about Woven?

Anyone has thoughts on LEWIS Global, and how they’re doing in APAC? I’m thinking of switching jobs and this opportunity came up. I’m still fresh in b2b PR but very keen to dive into it.

What is your posture toward medium/large discretionary spending these days? Is it dumb to buy a new TV that I really want but don’t strictly need?

Not sure if this is the place, but I have a preliminary interview with Kearney later this week for a Manager position. I’ve been working remotely with BDO for a couple years now. I’m in a major metro area. Does anyone know how much travel will be involved? I know true consulting firms are known for the road warrior reputation. Being away from my kids and husband more than 25% of the time... I don’t know if I could do it, even if it could potentially double my current salary.

Looking to do a 4 day extended weekend in early Oct. Traveling from NYC with girlfriend, any suggestions? Currently planning to visit Charleston

Hi all.

Does anyone has any feedback what it's like to work at Fingerpaint? Wondering on culture, benefits, time off, atmosphere.

Thank you in advance

I really don’t mind talking to law students. But I wish they would do a little bit of research before we chat.

Senior attorneys at v100, how common is it for attorneys who start at small firms to lateral to biglaw? Have you worked with any? Conventional wisdom is always that if you don’t start there it’s hard to “trade up”. My coworker and I just did it to two different great v30 firms, and I’m wondering if it’s really that uncommon? Just out of curiosity. We’re not special counsel with special niche skills or anything, just associates. Pitfalls to beware? Positives?

Potentially dumb question here…early stages of PE interview prep.

Is the model portion of the interview process always done from scratch? Just curious. Will certainly make sure I am able to do so, but wanted to hear from you guys if that is standard

Is anyone wondering what life will really be like for all the new Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion executives that many companies are hiring and bragging about now? I wonder how much power they will actually have to effect change. I wonder how long the trend will last.

Thoughts on McCann?

For a major home remodel ($50K+), does it ever make sense to use cash? It feels unwise, but loan fees are wild.

Canadians: regarding the RRSP, can someone help me understand this.

1) Can I get my salary paid directly into my RRSP? Is there a difference between this and if I manually move in the money myself?
2) I'll be working in the US and hence will have a salary hike next year, I was told this means I should wait until then to open my RRSP. Is this true?

Thank you in advance! Sorry, I am just very new to all this and overwhelmed.

For those now in retirement, how is your portfolio allocated? Would it be safe to just throw it all in a 2020 target date fund and let it ride and just begin your draw downs?
Asking because I’m talking to my in laws about how to help manage their income now that they have stopped working. I’m fluent on how to PREPARE for retirement but haven’t done much research in how to actually operate the finances once IN retirement.

What's the chance of Amazon hitting $2k/share this earnings season?

Hello everyone, I'm trying to get into real estate investing. Some of the books I've read have talked about buying a multi unit property and utilizing investors to get the necessary capital. Does anyone have experience in getting investors? How do you identify investors who may be interested? Are there any sites where you can invest in or post investment opportunities?
Thank you in advance.

Considering opening up Charles Schwab for checking and investing. Any feedback on them? Positive and/or negative

Can you use leftover money from a 529 account for professional certifications? Looking into getting a professional scrum master certificate but only if I can use the money I still have in my 529.

What’s the ideal split between an S&P 500 index etf and an international index etf?

What’s a good resource to learn about margin accounts? I live in Canada and have maxed my retirement contributions for the year so would like to open up a margin account. Thank you! 😊💫

New to trading and investing in equity. Have $200k in equity and $20k in MUNI bonds. How do you plan to diversify?

Has anyone taken up the Citibank offer of $200/400/700 cash upon depositing $5K/$15K/$50K after 3 months? Would you recommend it?

Is there any realistic way where tipping in the US goes away and we start to be like other countries (e.g. Europe/Asia)? Raise the price of the food, pay servers a fair wage, no tips? Just a dream 😅

I'm guessing no because businesses will fight hard against this (customers subsidize wages) and certain servers benefit from tipping as well.

Only other thing I can think of is if everyone collectively decides not to ever tip again and it forces business to change. Won't happen though.

I won $25,000,000 last night in the lottery (after tax). I'm 24 with no debt or obligations. I want to invest it into future goals with no lifestyle changes, and let it compound epically over the next 40 yrs.

What's the most efficient vehicle to transfer this money into an index fund without exceeding contribution limits, that also allows me to make executive decisions and divert portions of the funds to future house down-payments, trust funds for family, etc, with limited withdrawal penalties?

When to sell at a loss?

I’m 26 and have a fair chunk of my NW tied to Cloudflare - a tech stock that I believe has the opportunity to 3x and become a $100b+ company over the long term. Similarly, I have a lot in cloud computing etf - WCLD.

Given short term rotation out of growth stocks, I’m confused on what to do. I think we still have some time before growth stocks bottom out, but do I sell?

I would consider myself a “long only” investor, but am unsure what to do given my lack of diversif

Hi! I have a few questions on the backdoor Roth in which I’ve done a bit of research online. When it comes tax time, will my 401k vendor (Merrill) give me the correct documents? I’ve just used turbo tax in the past but am worried of any documents I may be missing to adjust any tax. Also- when does the pro-rata rule come into play? I’m just nervous in the entire process as this is my first year doing this. TIA!!

Given the consulting lifestyle we are used to, how much will we need to per month/year to survive?

Forget the 4% and 25 year rule, just a number per month/year? $10k per month? $15k?

Google search points to Interactive Brokers as one of the only options for Europeans, but wondering if anyone has personal experience with other services
