Dumb question, but I was super drunk on Saturday night and bought bottles at a club. I blacked out and noticed two transactions on my AMEX. How long does it take to see a pending transaction online? I want to make sure that I have no more surprises lol.

For those of you who got out at 10, do you wish that you rode it out to 20? I’m at a crossroad and I’m not sure what to do. Have some active/reserve time, wrapping up graduate school, and am now considering either a) come back to the business world or b) go active and retire before 50 and live off a nice pension. Obviously there are draws to both. I’m an officer for what it’s worth so I can realistically retire at O-5, MAYBE O-6.
