Hi everyone! I’m a US expat moving to Europe for a year for work. I have an options to live in Brussels or Amsterdam. Curious if anyone had tips on which city would be better for me and my wife. Mainly we’re looking for well connected cities to rest of europe, good public transport and just fun bars, food etc for the weekends

Hey guys, I just found this group and I’m hoping for some guidance/advice! I’m hoping to get into one of the Big 4s or MBB and finally got a few referrals once joining FB. I am 29, have an MA in IOP, and 10 YEO. I have never worked for a non-Jewish company (despite trying pretty damn hard to get out) and I’m freaking out. I have no concept of normal professionalism, strategy for navigating the workplace and the real world in corporate USA,(cont. in comment)

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.

Hi all, how did you solve the retirement puzzle?

As an expat, I went on the Degiro for investing at the moment, since the account can be used from all countries.

Was considering to invest also in an insurance, but is apparently not possible if you live abroad and then maybe go back to the home country.

Have any tips?

COMPENSATION THREAD

Have you been fired before even starting your new job?

I signed for a new job two months ago and will start next month (3 mo notice period in Europe). They were very keen on getting me on-board ASAP before signing but since I signed the contract it has been silent from the new employee. I've emailed them with questions as I'll be re-locating to NL and it takes them 1-2 weeks to reply. Given all that's going on in the world, I'm worried they might fire me before I even start.

Just checked all the assets and realized we're close to 1M€ net worth. Most of it is on the house, don't feel rich at all.

Ugh I just signed to fix my house’s mortgage interest rate at 2,73% for 2years. Get a gut feeling this wasn’t a good deal.
Have you fixed or planning to? If yes, how many years and at what rate?
