Every time my parents gift me with money (birthday, holidays) I save the cash so I can help them out with home repairs and renovations down the road. I don’t need the money but they insist. Then they keep remodeling parts of their home and I regift their cash back 😊😅

Do you think someone who owns 200 ETH is financially independent?

Alright, so I am late to the crypto scene, but is there anything I can get in on now? Or is it too late? Thanks

8k range was the long term 200 day MA support that everyone and their mother said they would be buying at. Well it’s 8900 and buy volume is basically nonexistent..

PSA - if you use bonus funds to place a bet with the Fan Duel Sportsbook parlay insurance the bet is ineligible for refund. For example - the 2/3 leg Euro parlay insurance.

My son made 11k on Doge but it is a joke coin. Put some money into SHIBA another joke coin. I knew all the cryptos would come back after the big fall. It was an opportunity to buy. Polygon has held up through all this because of the news from Deutche Bank. Look at the real cryptos. Bought these.

So, Partners... What's your spending breakdown like? Curious to see what expenses y'all have. # of yrs as Partner may also help.

Thanks for sharing! Again, just for fun and curiosity.

Thoughts on buying a house now? Lease is up in January. Can finally afford to buy. But would it be better to wait until next year in case of recession -> foreclosure market -> better deals? WDYT

I had a stellar annual review! However, I was advised not to expect a raise since I got a promotion a few months ago that bumped my income substantially. Thoughts??

I’m seeing lots of posts about really bad losses. If you trade you’re going to lose money - hopefully not all the time, but many positions will be mistakes. But you need a process to find ideas and manage positions. Two books you should read are “The New Trading for a Livinng” and “The Laws of Trading.” Both look at psychology, process, and risk in different ways that can help you work out your own process. The next 18 months will be much harder than the last 18 - time to start learning.

Current TC: 200k
Net worth: 300k, readily available 170k in stocks, hysa and cash

Wonder if anyone has any excel model or a rule to determine how much I can afford or should go for?

I have an expiring British Airways credit I need to use in January or February. Options are Lisbon, Paris, Rome and Athens. Anyone have thoughts on any of those in the winter/off season?

I'm coming from the US - my flight credit is use-it-or-lose-it so I'm trying not to spend much more than the original credit.

Hey, new to investing looking at initial mistakes I made. I have $1k in VOO, $7k in VT and $4k in VTI in my brokerage acct; in my Roth IRA I have $6k in VT and $7.7k in VTI. I know isn’t an ideal portfolio because many of these funds overlap. However I’m in for the long term and am willing to reposition to a strategy that will do the best over my life. Id appreciate to hear feedback on these 2 accounts and better approaches from others. Thanks!

Does anyone know what McKinsey offers in terms of tuition reimbursement to non consulting staff?

I’m at a mid size transactional firm. I’m a total night owl and my partners have OK’d me starting the workday at around 11am because I regularly work until midnight or later. I get so much more done after dark! I still get some side eye from other associates, but 🤷🏽‍♀️

Does anyone else here have an unusual work schedule? Curious what adjustments you’ve made to make it work.

I’m a graduate student in an MPH management program recruiting for consulting roles. Thoughts on going into smaller firms like ECG vs larger firms like PWC?

Does anyone have tips to get rid of eye bags ? Since I’ve started working they are getting worse. Mine are on the darker side and they are not puffy. I’m 26F. I’ve tried some eye creams and serums but I don’t see any results…

How does a person change their mindset to be more positive? I feel like I’m meant for my job, but blame all my life problems on it….having no energy, being single at the age of 30, etc. and it seems like a never ending loop. I look for new jobs, realize I have a good job then am ok for a bit then start it all over again. When I’m off of work I’m fine and realize I have it pretty good. Only real negative is I can’t vacation with my family in March due to my busy time.

He doubled down! The legend continues!

One of my closest friends have become so incredibly negative and self obsessed with her petty problems lately. I feel like all I do everyday is listen to her whine and complain! I’ve been trying to be supportive but at the same time I’m making positive changes in my own life and in my own mindset. How can I continue to be supportive while her attitude and negativity affect me and weigh me down? 😩

I have come to the realization that I am more attractive with a mask covering my face 😞

All of us want the same thing! Money- Flex Timing- Great Culture- Respect - Value in what we are doing!
We, the employees make an organization. If all of us want the same thing, how come the culture of that organization still remains the same! Why can’t we be the pioneer? Thoughts…

If your GF is interested in a 3some, what are your thoughts on that? 🤭

I think deep dish pizza is overrated.

Happy wife happy life is a really toxic saying. I’m just shocked how this has become the standard saying for men in relationships. I have friends of mine saying this all the time, and I have just thought it’s so cringe and always want to say my thoughts on it but always decide to hold back. However, imagine the saying reversed - happy husband happy life - that would lead to all kinds of uproar. To me happy wife happy life means I need to sacrifice my wants and needs to make my wife happy.

Half the reason I work out is to make my ex jealous

Sometimes I wake up and am surprised I’m on people’s close friends story. They aren’t on my list but alright, I’ll take it. Guess we’re close than I expected?

This lady on Ted Lasso looks too much like Megyn Kelly. It's throwing me off

The stress of this job ruined my life.
The stress has lead to an eating disorder that I can’t get control of. I’ve lost 25 pounds since starting at the firm two and a half years ago. I am 20 pounds less than I was in high school... I don’t know how to get control again. Even when the stress lays off I can’t eat more due to being used to being busy for almost 9 months out of the year...

What do I do you do with your down time? I’m so bored.

Confession: The only in-law that I had a great relationship with passed away unexpectedly. The two remaining in-laws were on thin ice with me prior due to years of drama, nagging, and disgusting display of wealth. I believe their demand of money and general assholish behavior drove in law to his death. I love my S.O. but I can’t deal with the drama anymore.

I want to have a family and a future that is drama-free and full of love and don’t want to surround myself with negativity.

I love a well behaved dog.

But dog hype and what dog owners get away with in terms of occupying human spaces, jumping on strangers with dirty paws, going to a friends house and having the dogs harass you for food, and obsession on the dating apps is next level obnoxious.

Dogs can be great, not a hater. But if you can’t control your dog you’re a massive piece of shit for imposing that on everyone else.

Anybody want to bring me to the Slalom Denver party last minute?

Is anyone concerned the push for sexual equality in pay without accordant leveling of parental leave is gonna backfire?

Here’s a hypothetical:

A company has 2 candidates, aged 25-30, equal in every respect save one’s a man the other’s a woman. Maybe the woman is a slightly better candidate overall. They’d have equal comp.

Company considers the woman a riskier bet due to possibility she’ll take maternity leave — and considers the man less risky for his ineligibility to take as much leave. 🤷
