I’m 23, left blackrock because I’m making way more money trading for myself. Looking to buy a 3/3 house in Miami Beach north of 40th, debating whether I pay cash so I have lower monthly fees, or getting a mortgage, due my age I’ve been having some trouble. My current portfolio is about 10m. My price range on properties is 3-5m. I’ll be closing a sale on my tech startup for 1-2m this summer hopefully. Question is should I use OPM, and how much you suggest I put down cash, or full cash?

How many of you are working remote? I really don’t see how this industry, especially in IT risk could go back to the office. I had minimal time prior to covid at client sites. Want to get a feeling around how many people here still remote and will be remote at least for the presumable future.
