Hi all. Please I need your suggestions. I’ve just found out that I low-balled myself when HR asked for salary expectations and I’m not really sure how to back-track and revise my expectations. What would you do if you were me? The offer isn’t in yet and the process is still ongoing

I don’t get it: Why would anyone invest, for example, in a 6% dividend yield etf with a 0.50% ER (ie EMHY) instead of a 9% dividend yield etf with a 2.5 ER (ie YYY)? Wouldn’t you still be getting better results with the expensive one?

2. Can I keep the current CTC thet he asked as blank and just state my expected CTC in email?

Any suggestions on this will be helpful. Thanks.
