Industry vets - in your experience how recession proof is insurance? I was not yet in the job market last recession but I watched my mom get laid off and struggle to find employment during that time for the next 1.5 years. I was wanting to hit the job market towards the end of this year, but now I worry that if I do move companies, the recession could put me in position of last one hired first one fired. Is it better to stay put?

Hi fishes!

Need a referral for a role I wish to apply at Citi... Can someone please help me out?

TIA @Citibank

Any PowerBI consultants out there? Curious if the need for this is really out there, how lucrative it is, and what other skills help in your process (sql, python, etc)

Tks!

Explain to me like I’m 5. Why does the monthly billable hours goal on things like Intellistat change month to month. I’m not hitting hours this year. Last month goal was 158. This months goal is 180.

I have my own practice for past 5 years and have spent a lot of time building up brand and reputation. I'm thinking of bringing on partners but am trying to figure out how to structure compensation, profit sharing and equity while maintaining control. I dont want to do associates bc I need someone with more experience than I can afford. Does anyone have any ideas on how one can up a law firm?

How do you handle billing disputes? Already feel like we’re a steal compared to other firms, but it’s the pits when clients kvetch about the bill after working hard on their matters. For five figure disputes, anyone recommend collections? Don’t really want to institute retainers, especially since it doesn’t seem common for our practice area.

Thoughts on 0g carb diet sodas while in keto?

How do you know when it’s time to get help? I’ve never seen a mental health professional but I just don’t feel like myself lately, a lot of which I think is attributed to quarantine.

Almost 12 weeks. Still feeling sick in the evenings. Anyone? Please tell me this will end soon…

BCG really disgusted for you to not provide any feedback on my interview after multiple emails.

Know this is a long shot, but if I’m counseled out of one MBB, what are the chances I could get an equivalent job at another? And if not another MBB, thinking that a T2 or B4 could be possible? I’m not even sure I want to stay in consulting, but also feel like I didn’t get a fair shot at it

In my opinion one of the worse things you could hear from someone when you are dating is ‘I usually don’t talk to someone like you’. It makes it seem like you are just settling for that person.

What happens when someone sign an offer letter and decide not to join for some reason like joining a diff company?

Hi Fishes, need your Insights on laptop purchase.
Can I buy and reimburse IMac? Or should I buy only laptop?

I burned out months ago and now I’m just in a rut. How do I fix this?

Which companies in Canada are giving remote opportunities in the insurance industry?

How do real estate lenders take cash flow into consideration? For example, typically I would probably only be approved for a $500k loan ($125k comp and $100k for down payment), but if I’m buying a multi-family home and planning to live in a unit and rent the others, will lenders approve a bigger loan?

Kicking myself today for not pulling the trigger on the 10 (5/15) ZM put contracts I had typed in on Friday...have spent most of the day frustrated about it, wondering what would have been.

If you’re not buying MGNI, idk what to tell you ... $11->$18.6 in a week and MktCap is still 2.1Bn. P/S is 5, and it has room to grow for a MktCap of 5Bn based on competitors. Just putting that out there

SNAP - 5/22 $18p, b/e $16.86

Thoughts on fastly after the big drop? Worth buying?

Feeling a large wash out on TSLA is coming. Up on the week on leaked Musk email relating to deliveries. That number came in today at a beat. Bought todays puts when stock at 1208. Looking for 1150. Profit taking is coming. Don’t follow as risk is high.

New to options on fishbowl - I have a call itm with Robinhood that expires tomorrow. If I don’t sell it, what happens? Will they exercise or am I better to sell it?

Is there any good reason LMND went up $33 in one day?

$TBLT man. Quite the thrilling penny stock.

Thoughts on SQ considering the CEO cashed in?

I am down $25K on $150K portfolio. Should I cut losses and leave or continue :(

Why you should stay invested : asset inflation, then normal inflation, low rates forever, trillions in additional stimulus, dollar destruction (on purpose), coronavirus pushed tech ahead a year or two in adoption. STONKS ONLY GO UP!
