So I’ve worked with the Disney tax team a bit. I feel like they actually have a great operation with some fairly sophisticated tools and procedures. That’s a company I’d definitely consider working for if you get an offer.

To repeat some other comments they are very excited about any Disney references but having a young kid I didn’t really think much of it besides them having some corporate pride. Disney owns a lot in the entertainment industry, and you’ll get a wide range of experience with that group.

We’ve worked with them a lot in an advisory capacity. I know they are VERY budget conscious.

Hi I have asked to be an advisor for a startup. Its in its very early stage pre pre-seed. Its looking like weekly strategy calls and possibly some executional work as well. Like building out a sales process and/or training sales and marketing team members (this might be 1-3hr a week of work).

They are offering 1.5-3.5%. — I am wondering if that’s enough.

In addition to this the founder mentioned that he would like me to consider becoming a co-founder.

I want to buy a large TV for Cyber Monday but have always been lower income. I would feel bad having family over with an expensive TV. I don't really need it. Our house is still very much low budget. I haven't made any real upgrades since getting a new job.

Is this a weird rationalization or logical? I am kind of torn so I considered just using that money for a vacation and maybe buying a TV next year... though I'll likely do this again at that time.
