How should you manage your credit card situation if you’re joining McKinsey out of college? Do you pay the platinum fee for the company provided Amex and bill your personal expenses in that too? Or do you get another personal card like a CSR? Not sure what they provide vs what you should do on your own.

Does anyone know when the best time of the year would be to buy a car is now? How is this current pandemic/economy affecting dealer pricing, etc?

Hello fishes
Can you guys please suggest me the good term insurance plan and things I need to check before taking the policy.

What are some of the best books you’ve read about people and investing? Such as dealing with people (business psychology almost) and then investing (real estate more specifically)!

I am looking for books that give practical advice, not just big picture theory and motivation.

Hi - any good books recommendations for getting started on real estate investing?

Currently working in Arizona hybrid under my H1B status. My company is also located in AZ. I mostly do not need to go into office unless needed. Currently I’m planning to relocate to California for 2 months temporarily. My director is concern is this is going to affect my visa status. Does anyone have advice ?

A Delta flight I took from the US to the EU a few months ago was delayed 24 hours (of which I spent at the airport) and when I asked for a refund for the $1300 ticket they declined and offered a $150 gift card 😂🥴🙃

Heads up: Hilton is giving triple points during July if you use their credit card for booking. Good opportunity to make up to 54 points per $1. Time to stack up those points! Happy monday! :D

Tampa lawyers who work downtown: where do you live? Looking to purchase a house soon and am trying to decide between a low commute time (crappier house and a tight move financially) and a longer commute time (nicer house and more comfortable financially). The longer commute time also comes with better public schools, and I want to have kids.

AMA: International Travel (US to Europe) During Coronavirus! I found very little info on this topic before my trip and had a bunch of questions which I wish someone could have helped with. Now, a friend and I both traveled US to Europe in the last week, different routes, in Econ/Biz. For anyone else looking to do the same, I’m happy to answer anything about the process - check in, flights, mask usage, security, visa checks, airports, social distancing, etc.

Pretty sure the answer is self explanatory but first year with real status. Does Marriott status reset Jan 1? For instance if I need 10 nights for Platnium am I SOL if I stay 9 nights by Dec 31?

It always seemed like real estate was one of the safest things to invest in. Then the crash of ‘09 happened, and the market bounced back for a while. And now we’re in… whatever this is. It just seems surreal.

Advice and tips for a first time rental property investor?

I am 24 saving up for my first property to purchase at the end of 2021 / early 2022 in the Long Island, NY area.

I’d like to save up around $50K in my HYSA for a property <$400K in LI. Does this sound reasonable?

Does anyone have any advice on investing in the LI area (best location, SFH v MFH) or just general first time rental property buying advice?

Thanks all

I just hit my lean fire number but am hesitating to pull the trigger, so was hoping to run it by people smarter than me:

- I have a few rentals that bring in ~$1800/mo cash flow, taxes are negligible, Capex incl.
- My paper assets will bring in ~$1200/mo at 3% draw
- I get free Healthcare at the VA
- No plans on kids
- My expenses haven't topped $30k/yr ever
- I could always reenter the workforce if needed (albeit probably not in consulting)

Please point out the flaws here, what am I missing?
