I know Bitcoin gets a lot of exposure but if you invested in Stellar or Ethereum over the last year, you would have a higher rate of return versus bitcoin. For any new Investors, you should definitely take a look at other crypto’s outside of bitcoin.

Im very bullish on Stellar and Ethereum as they have actual use cases. I don’t really believe in the bitcoin inflation protection use cases.

Good luck 🍀

About how many deals do y’all work on in a year?

Recruiter reached out about KPMGs Lenders Deals advisory position. Currently only been in audit for less than a year at a Top10 firm. My question is: if I move from audit to the lenders deal advisory, Is it pidgin holing me since this role is smaller in scope than FDD? Or is it still a good move purely since I’d be getting B4 on my resume?

What is the salary range for senior associates (specifically S2) in Texas for FDD at KPMG? May need to transfer offices and would be coming from HCOL. Thanks!!
