How hard is it to transition from PE FoF to public equities?

Probably not very hard. But why leave?

While working in private equity FoF is very interesting, I feel like there is less of the control element. You are selecting the GPs, not the investments. In public equities (LO strategies), you are selecting the securities, which can potentially add more transferable skills under your belt.

Do you have prior experience pitching public equities—whether it’s a stock pitch back in undergrad / MBA or you have done an equities specific investment recommendation write-up?

I presume it should not be too difficult of a transition as long as you can talk through your rationale on why you would recommend xyz company and have a strong conviction in your decision making process (which you would display in your interviews).

I am selling house and remodeling both master bath and kids bath. Got quote for 29k for both and I buy floors and cabinets.question is I have a very big whirlpool tub and tiles around it discolored. It’s a hassle to lift it up change the tiles and fixtures and put it back. It’s old but works great. Remodeling ppl recommend get rid of it, give space to buyers if they want to buy standalone tub. I thought it adds value to have whirlpool tub. But can’t even change fixture. Should I get rid of it?
