What’s extra money?

funny

undeveloped land

Rentals and of course mostly retirement and non-qualified investment accounts..

Keeping it relatively liquid for now (MMF and short CDs). Waiting for an opportunity to buy some rental properties.

Buying properties to use as short term rentals on Airbnb, HomeAway etc.

Feeling a sharp tinging pain in left lower abdomen. It’s my first trimester. Have my OB visit next week, but between then and now has anyone encountered it?
FYI - I had something similar before I got pregnant. Was on vacations and planned to get it checked on return but it went away by the time I returned so never got it checked.

TLDR: Getting over your ex of 2.5 years ghosting you after they said they wanted to reconnect.

I was dating someone for about 2.5 years and then we broke up because of COVID and the long distance was making it too difficult to continue. The break up must’ve been like a 4-5 minute FaceTime because I was very distraught. After we broke up, she started seeing someone else but I was heartbroken and it’s taken me over a year to really get over everything and process those feelings. (Cont.)

Suppose you are 3 months pregnant and interviewing for a job. Would you disclose to the recruiter that you are expecting or is there no need to give that information until after being hired? As for the compensation, if you’ve already been told pre-interview, the salary range for the role, is it appropriate to negotiate a number for the salary if you are asked your desired salary in the first screening interview? Or should you try to hold off on the negotiation after you receive an offer?
