Would you prepay your mortgage (2.75%) or invest? Would you refinance 15 year or 30yr? I understand that over a long run, you can invest the difference and increase wealth. But it generally takes 10+ years to break even. What’s your reason NOT to do the 30yr mortgage?

Hi Guys,

I have a salary negotiation round with Capgemini for the profile of ABM (Account Based Marketing) - Team Manager Role at C1 level

My Current CTC is 13.15 LPA, what is the range that i can look to negotiate between, also want to know if it is possible to ask for joining and retention bonus

I covertly freelanced with another agency on a project that recently won a Lion. Reviews at my current agency are coming up. Should I use that award as leverage to get more money?

Additional context: I went fully freelance last year for a bit. I ended up going back to full time while still freelancing on side because the offer was at a top shop, but the salary was terrible.

Anyone else agree only Scotch (and the odd Irish) is whisky? So many pretenders.
Let go of the false prophets: If it’s not made of 100% malted barley and aged in oak for years then it’s sewer water.

Japanese recommendations? I'll start: Nikka Coffey Grain whisky. It's food whisky at a decent whisky price.

It’s pappy season!
