Has anyone been able to refinance student loans on F1 OPT / H1 visa? Would love to hear about your experience.

Any suggestions for books to read about any guide for buying house in Canada or on real estate in Canada ?

Thanks

Can someone confirm how long does a maintenance case take if wife is earning almost twice of husband and taken the kids along with her? Neither willing to stay in matrimonial home, not willing to give the kids or come back because she wants to work in another city and stay close to her own parents.
Demanding huge money in the name of kids to end the case. Should the guy pay the amount(1.5 times his CTC) or should wait for court?
How much maintenance is she eligible for considering her income?

My H1B petition is approved( visa processing is left). What are the next steps and timeline? Should I retrieve my resignation in hope of this?

Any Sloanies here caring to share about life@Sloan paying full ticket price and if it’s worth it? Just submitted my enrollment deposit today🎉 Now to find some financial aid....

What are your plans for your tax return? Looking for some ideas that are reasonable, Thx.

This one is for folks on h1b visa. So at time when you have an offer in hand(not accepted the offer yet and h1b transfer process not yet begun) while you are working with your current employer, do you even speak to your employer about your new offer to see if they make a counter offer?
Is there a risk involved with this approach assuming your current employer doesn't provide you with a counter offer and they ask you to leave immediately (and your h1b visa hasn't been transferred either)

What actual stocks you all buying today? Got some cash from settled trades I want to deploy

New to investing. Please suggest an awesome newsletter to start with. I’m planning to buy a premium subscription of $79 yearly for the Oxford Income Letter. Any suggestions that are better than this newsletter.

I’m leaving my job soon but I’m wondering if I should be truthful when I hand in my letter of resignation. There’s a ton of reasons but it boils down to: I’m worth more than they can pay me and I need to pay off these student loans. What should I say?

Finally I am a tax payer of India.... After 3.2 years in TCS, will pay tax on 8k😂😜😜😜

House flip question

Hey all newbie here. My husband and I are living that Double Income No Kid life wanting to (Financial Independence) Retire Early.

Both in tech in the Bay Area. I’m in Arizona visiting family and am thinking of an investment property. Does anyone have a book/course/video that they personally have used and recommend for flipping houses? I want to do some research there’s a lot of content out there.
Thanks a bunch!

Hi Fishes,

My wife is getting transferred to California from India and she is offered 143k.

How much she can get after tax deduction and all? How much she can save after all the expenses?

She is insisting that I travel with her and get the job in the US. I'm a software developer having 4.1 YOE. How much can I get in the US? Is it worth traveling with her?

Any information would be helpful, Thanks in advance...

Buying a house with monthly expense of $4900, although my current rent is only $2350. My total HHI with my husband is about $310K. I’m feeling weary of spending this much but we live in a HCOL area near a major city and we have high taxes. It’s hard to find anything decent under $800K. Should I just suck it up in order to be a homeowner?

Thoughts on purchasing leads?

Has anyone ever posted a general marketing position? We have an open position on our marketing team but we are unsure what type of position to offer. We have a wide variety of needs but don’t necessarily need to have this future person have all these skills. For example we need someone with great copywriting skills and also need someone who is great at digital marketing. This person doesn’t necessarily need to have both skills but if they did great, but if only one, great too.

Anyone done a feature for Vanguard Law or similar? How did that work out for you? Did your outside counsel receive a shake down to sponsor the piece?

I have been stiff arming Vanguard for years but am curious if there’s any actual benefit. Or at least funny stories.

SO and I got in to a disagreement on the background of Indian tech CEOs. It appears that they are all from 1 or 2 major communities in India.

While he thinks that its genetics/being naturally gifted that got them to where they are I believe it's the environment & discipline that made them successful. We are not from said communities but curious to hear your thoughts on who is more accurate.
