Without a doubt. Max it out.

Your company’s plan should be online included in a filing with the SEC. Most companies will not allow you to increase your contribution percentage within an offering period after the registration period is closed. So you’ll have to wait until the next offering period. Again, plan specific so you’ll have to see what the plan allows for.

Thank you!

Max your 401k matching first, max your ESPP second, max the rest of your 401k if you’re able third, in that order. Roth401k preferred if available.

Max 15%. I see huge potential. I started when it was 80$ in 2018

Thanks everyone! Does anyone know what the rules are about when i can change the %? Fidelity not letting me do it rn…im obviously clueless 😔

Did you try to call them?

Max the ESPP regardless of what you have in your 401k. For those unaware, MSFT matches 50% of your contributions up to the 19.5k limit. This is a guaranteed 10% return on what you put in so max this out.
The window is closed for this quarter ending 12/31. But you can enroll for the following quarter. If you're new it may take a couple weeks to allow you to enroll.

Has anyone ever heard of this type of real estate private equity fund structure:

-One LLC, so only one PPM
-Multiple investors that can be onboarded anytime
-Multiple investments that investors can determine whether or not they want to invest in
-One K-1 per investor based on their investments and income
-Ability for the Sponsor/Fund to invest directly, indirectly and in equity, debt, Pref, etc.
To me this seems extremely cumbersome and would require multiple classes of (cont’d)

Hello Fishes, I interviewed at a company in October and they responded to me after a month. I accepted the verbal offer last week Wednesday. They said they would give written offer in a week. I have recruiters from the same company reach out for positions at different locations. My current recruiter said once I accept this I can't interview for other positions at the same company. Their process is so slow that I don't really want to miss out on any chance.What would be a great time to follow up?

Hi! I started at a new company 2 months ago and while I’m really enjoying my job so far, I’m having a hard time gauging whether or not I’m doing a “good job.” My role seems to be always evolving, which is fine and I actually enjoy being a support to the greater marketing team, but I feel like I need better defined targets to make sure I’m meeting expectations. Also, when I ask my boss what they’d like to see, I don’t ever get a clear answer. (Cont’d in comments)

HR agreed and told will fast track your bgv .
Now the problem is they released offer for 11thJuly saying will preponed in case bgv finished early.
Today I again got a mail for 18th july extension.

Am quite worried here now, as I already said no to other companies !should I try looking again.
