Obviously many of us get paid very well and there is an expectation with work demands for being paid that high. But what’s too much? How do you set a limit to preserve your mental health? I find myself guilty for taking time to decompress but I know I come back to work refocused after I do it.

Was in a few other bowls where people were lamenting not having real friends, so I created this bowl to help us intermingle and foster connections in the app and in person!

Auto rebalance (every 90 days) or manually rebalance as needed? I'd rather be more passive but willing to do it myself to save money. Btw if anyone ACN knows rebalance cost structure, please share.

Facebook Ads after iOS 14 changes.

I'll share my experience and urge you to share yours:

Since iOS 14 changes, Facebook ads isn't the same anymore. Why?

B. Targeting and conversion tracking aren't as effective anymore.
C. Many advertisers have been migrating their budgets from Facebook to Apple and Amazon ads.

What's your experience? Let's all learn.
