Hotel or corporate housing? Benefits and drawbacks of each. This is for a long term engagement in Denver. I really like getting my Marriott points, but wouldn’t mind staying some weekends in Denver.

Why can’t you stay the weekends occasionally anyway while you’re in the hotel? You get the points during the week, expense the hotel over the weekend bc it’s cheaper than flying home, still get the points on the weekend, win win. What’s the real question here?

Depends on where in Denver maybe? There are some nice hotels here but if the housing is in a nice area that might be a better option 🤷🏽‍♂️. Also why can't you do what A1 suggested?

Hello Fishess,

I’m an ERISA consultant for Marsh providing 3(21) and 3(38) services. I am interested in learning the opinion of in house counsel. Is it a priority in 2022 to outsource or mitigate fiduciary liability in light of the excessive fee lawsuits hitting employers? Would a trustee committee for a 401k plan hire a third party cofiduciary to share that risk? Lastly, what additional compensation should the 5500 signor receive when asked to be the trustee for a retirement plan?

Thoughts on XL airways?

Living in Van. Previously lived in Toronto. Obviously rent prices are high as is cost of living. Generally go out and spend more often living in a city.

Before we move home to our own country, we’d love to spend a year close to Vancouver where rent is cheaper, temptation is less, to save. A commute to Vancouver 1-2 times a month needs to be possible (his job). That can be a flight if it’s not crazy. Thoughts? Recommendations?
