Best hotel in Phoenix? Prefer Marriott but open to others if it’s a great spot.

Is it me or the wifi in hotels is too bad to play online games? How do you people manage gaming while traveling?

Hi fellow fish need some advice.

I'm planning a wedding and wondering if I should apply for new credit cards to maximize on points. If so, wondering what your recommendations are and or if there are new cards out there I haven't heard of yet. For context I probably have another 20k+ in expenses to pay still and my current cards are:

CSP
Marriott Bonvoy Boundless
Citi double cash
Random card (used to be uber)

Did EWR pull out of priority pass? Seems like there are no more lounges listed at the airport. Kinda disappointed with the sapphire reserve lounge access…

I don’t get why people get so mad when planes are delayed due to weather. It’s not like the gate agent will clear up the skies

If hotels give you soap, shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, and cotton balls/q tips (sometimes mouthwash), why don’t they just supply toothpaste?

Hi

Are Uber/Lyft drivers reluctant to drive from DC (Logan) to BWI?

My husband and I are thinking about taking a 6 month career break to travel. Career suicide or worth the risk? For context, I’m a 4th year big law associate (30 years old and no kids).

Does your firm let you take 28-30 December off? Many of my team members won’t be working those days and I decided last minute that I’d like to travel somewhere between Christmas and the New Year.

Does anyone use their private car to drive to work from hebbal, thanisandra or places that are 20kms away? It may be an absurd question to ask considering the Bangalore traffic, but still checking if there's anybody driving down that distance?

Can we please go back to the time when our most important topic was whether it is morally acceptable to recline seats in airplanes?

Anyone else prefer to stay at extended stay hotels when traveling weekly? Which do you stay at?

My preference is Hyatt House.

My fiancé and I both have the CSR card and Freedom Unlimited combo and love them. We are thinking of adding another card and we were considering the Amex Platinum (to diversity transfer partners) or likely a United card for lounge access since we live in Chicago.

Does anyone else have both CSR and Amex Platinum? Would you recommend?

Should I be concerned?

What do you when you begin to feel yourself emotionally detaching and spiraling back to a depressive state?

Just found out that my favorite aunt, who claimed I was her “favorite” niece, chose to leave all her valuables to her other two nieces who never visited or called her once in the last ten years. My aunt passed away suffering from cancer last year and didn’t have her own kids. I was there by her side throughout her battle. I still wish I had done more, made her life easier. I probably sound petty, but a part of me is forcing me to re-evaluate every interaction I ever had with her.

Why is drinking and getting drunk the “fun” traits but staying home to chill is “boring”? I must be in the wrong era 🥺

For anyone that is CPHQ certified - how has this certification benefited you? Do you think it has improved your job prospects? Thanks in advance!

I have mostly passive investments. I was thinking the other day: what if everyone had only passive investments? Wouldn’t this create incredibly high amount of systemic risk? Are we all sheep??

Hi Fishes, I have one question for you.

When investing liquid cash long term do you all work with an investment advisor or do it yourself? Just got off of a meeting with J P Chase investment advisor who is essentially going to invest my money into a bunch of their own ETFs, S&P500 and some fixed assets.

Deloitte guys - Serious question.
How is Analytics & Cognitive doing at D? I have an offer and I am not sure if there will be layoffs again. I am on work visa so will be difficult.
Role will be for Google Cloud & Analytics. Current job doesn't suck much though.

I'm an introverted person, like to keep to myself, focus on work, spend the rest of my time on family, gym etc. I've been told that I need to work on my communication and client relationship building skills. any books I can read? I don't follow pop. culture anymore, no longer actively follow team sports (but sporty myself) as I consider it bread and circus for the masses and don't rly enjoy work drinks... Am I doomed? Personally I am happy and love the work but fear for my career progression.

What are some purchases/gadgets that helped your productivity while WFH? For me its a new chair, second monitor, mechanical keyboard, a good mouse and new headset for calls.

Hot take: high school was harder than college, thoughts?

When your eyes pop open at 5:50am on Saturday because you don't remember if you submitted your timesheet (holiday season throws things off). Thankfully I did. Back to bed

Been in consulting, three years post MBA. At a point where I honestly feel like what we do doesn't matter. We don't actually make anything and reuse solutions. Anyone have similar thoughts? (Cont.)

Watching Boyz N the Hood and Menace 2 Society. Are there books that shed light on how the media and cultural portrayal (whether accurate or not) of black people changed from the 1960s to the 90s?

Here's a question I wish I never had to ask. Is it better to use the code for bereavement leave or just burn pto I'm going to lose anyway? Does it make a difference from a utilization standpoint?

CAIA vs CFA?

Quit my job early, thinking I’d have six months to travel before business school. What would you do with the time now that travel / going back to work is out of the picture?
