similar but all ETFs instead of stocks/mutual funds. damn trading restrictions

That’s a lot of money to expenses

I'm assuming Moelis included student loan/car etc in the 50% number.. but yes, even if first year analyst making 90+80 or roughly 110-120 after tax annually, 55-60k is high..

D said we will all move to Central Business Service (CBS)

Although management says it will have no impact on us, am suspecting that's not the case.

Please, share your thoughts as am thinking that moving to CBS we will lose some perks.
