I just got a new credit card. It came with a Priority Pass membership. I always travel economy, I hardly ever get lounge access. I got excited, until I remembered I can’t travel and lounges are closed anyways. :(

PP in the USA is also very meh, if it’s not an AMX the restaurant benefit is actually better. It’s more useful internationally or smaller airports where they’re the only third party option.

Was thinking about that today. Very excited to pay £500 Amex annual fee for not using any of the benefits (travel insurance/lounge etc)

Ya PP is too easy to get so you still de add l with the great unwashed ( proof: they gave it to me)

Doesn't matter. I had that pass for the last 6 years and never once used it.

I just left my pre-seed startup that was running out of cash (we made $100,000 in revenue this year, and sunk $1m in costs). I was making $40,000 as a developer (plus 20k stock options at $1/share per year) and they refused to pay me any more money. I have 17,000 vested stock options, total number of shares at the time of my contract was 4million. I’m a bit confused about share dilution and if it’s worth it for me to buy some of my stock options… thanks in adv!

For any of you real estate investors, what tools or sources did you learn from when getting started. Can’t find a mentor currently so want to find some highly recommended books or videos. If focused on the tri-state area (NY, NJ, Long Island mainly) that would be even better. My hope is to buy and rent out a apartment while also owning a house and house hacking that by renting part of it out. Trying to understand all the steps, traps, and how to find if it’s a good investment.

I have fidelity for my 401k, would they be good to open a taxable investment account with, or are there better options?
