~$40k in annual spend, at least 2-3 int’l paid premium cabin trips. Ideally not a weekly commuter (if you are, most should be booked in First).

I’ve hit those numbers and don’t have GS this year. I think it’s more than 2-3 international premium cabin trips for sure

Out of SFO min is usually 50K on UA metal, and maybe a somewhat high cost/mile.

Surprised SFO is so low honestly as a hub

I found using GoFormative’s free version to be very helpful in teaching new topics to my students. I embed videos I make demonstrating how to complete a question, next I ask them to complete an example showing work, and then the next question they type their answer so it automatically alerts them to see if they answered correctly. It can be used live in a meet and on an independent virtual day. In my google meets, I’m able to give feedback on any question they have trouble with in real time.

Told a friend of mine in tech I was considering moving to BCG. He asked me if I would have to move to Boston.

I followed up by asking what he thought the top consulting firms were. "I'd guess PwC and then McKinsey are the best. I've also heard of KPMG, Deloitte, and Bain, but I don't know much about them."

Just a reminder that outside our bubble no-one really cares about firm prestige etc.
