My father passed away last week. I had wills written up for him, he has a small c corp, and we don’t live in a community property state. Mom’s still with us, fortunately.
Besides informing social security, filing a life insurance claim, getting a death certificate, flagging his credit card, and starting the probate process, is there anything else I need to do immediately (in a financial/regulatory sense)?
I’ve been following the guide here: https://www.reddit.com/r/personalfinance/wiki/death_of_loved_one/ but others guidance is always appreciated.

I have recently joined EY SaT group as senior consultant recently in Netherlands. I’m tripple masters in MS economics, MBA and MS business analytics. Have 4 YOE in different industries but no M&A experience specifically. Any ideas what company should be offering me? I’ll be working as expert on commercial due diligence, FDD and valuation teams and doing automation alongside. is it wise to demand higher salary or promotion soon after I have proven that I can work and do it better than most?EY

My WLB is good right now but I don’t think I’ll be happy with just jogging in place for the next two years waiting for something outside of my control to happen (closing subsequent fund) before I can move up. It’s been a tough convo to have with my fiance bc we are very comfortable right now and he doesn’t see the immediate ROI that an MBA would provide me. I should also mention I would likely do the 1Y program instead of 2Y. I’ve been deferring this admission for 4 years and it’s really now or never (can only defer one more year).
Will your firm pay for your MBA? I don't think it's worth it in your situation unless they do. You're already in a position that's considered a desirable post-MBA role
You are already in your desired field and in a comfortable role but an M7 program can also raise your salary potential. It’s just one year I say go for it.
As an MBA candidate who used to work in investment fund, I would say go for it. I learn a lot i my program and my network expanded significantly too. Also Canadian salary is much lower compared to US. So I would aim for the US in long run. Btw, are you in Toronto? I am checking investment job scenario over there. I am in Vancouver ☺️. Thanks
I didn’t know any M7 have one year programs.
But it sounds like a better investment to stay put especially if you’re not changing your career path.
You can also still move to NYC by changing firms at any point and get a sizable pay bump and change of scenery if that’s what you really want.
Uprooting your family after recently purchasing your first home so soon is small in the grand scheme of things but is probably another bad move financially.
OP I think there are 3 paths here. 1) your current shop holds your seat and allows you to return post-MBA. 2) you enroll into the program (honestly I’m more in the camp of 2 years) and recruit for another shop. 3) lateral to another shop and forego b school entirely.
I went to an M7 and my classmates that were looking to return to PE post-MBA did fine (that being said, the market today is very different). You just need to consider the expected value of all 3 options.
Agree with what’s been said. Also note that a two year program offers much more opportunity to expand your networks than does a one year program. Obviously even more opportunity cost there but something to consider in the equation
