I used to love watching air crash investigations while flying home on Thursdays. I’d be on a plane watching planes crash, and people around me would give me weird stares.

Once you hit your FI number, what are your plans? 1 yr? 3-5yrs? beyond?

Left IBD to quickly - VP1 opps?

Long story short - was lured into an opportunity to do BD for a large PE PortCo… better work/life balance, but honestly miss the deal cycle.

Anyone know of open VP1 opps right now?

Quick background - former MM banker (think Raymond James, Piper Sandler size) doing FinTech and Asset Management within FIG, but also open to other sectors.

Thanks!

What do we think is going to happen with student loan deferral? Any recent new grads thinking they’re going to pay back any time soon? Some argue Biden is going to keep pushing interest pause til next election then forgive 10k as a strategy to help get re-elected? I only have 15k to pay and can pay it anytime, but no incentive to when that money can be earning more elsewhere in the meantime, thoughts on what is really going to happen?

Best ways to create a realistic, healthy work environment?

There are too many men out there who think that just because I'm being polite, it's a sign that they should flirt with me while I'm at work. I thought this was 2022, why haven't we as a society gotten past this yet?

Secret sports annoyance / confession : I think it’s so arrogant that it’s called the “world” series. At best it’s the “North American” championship based on the teams/countries represented in the MLB 🙄

How do you guys make friends in a new town?

Big birthday coming up in a few months and wanting to do things I have never done before (tattoos, surgery, etc.) What have you done as a result of a mid life crisis?

On the topic of intimacy with partners… I’ve been with my boyfriend for 2 years and the past year his libido has dropped to zero. Mostly due to work stress (he says). Whenever I try to initiate, he always shuts me down and says he’s not in the mood. I even touch him and he gets hard but stops me as soon as I try to unzip him. We went from once a week to maybe once a quarter.

I’ve talked to him about it and he says I should take care of myself. So frustrated. 😭😭

Took PM robitussin instead of DM 🤦 mad tired right now..😴

Anyone else use voice text and always end up having to fix what you could have typed in the first place?

When your boss complains to you about C-Suite issues they are tasked to resolve but instead calls leadership assholes… run

Pro tip: you can significantly reduce your amount of laundry by wearing the same sweatpants and hoodie all week because you're a work from home bum that never leaves the house

After ~20-30 min on a call, I stop paying attention.

I’ve been tobacco free for two years, today.

I’ve been high every day for two years, today.

I think non-inclusive teams aren't revenue-efficient, but also aren't morally bad. Most just want to live in their bubble and not have their lives disrupted. If people want coworkers to talk football or cricket or fashion or LGBTQ+ rights with, that's entirely their prerogative. Companies and teams aren't just money printers, but also communities. You can't expect to fit into all communities.

My career goal isn’t to make it to MBB or a unicorn or FAANG. It’s to feel fulfilled and challenged as I progress. I can’t be the only one that isn’t title or company chasing.

I am just curious how many people are okay with spending more money on gas if it means “sticking it to Putin?” No judgement, I am just trying to gauge if reporting matches reality. Thank you and I hope you are all having a good morning (EST here) .

How much time in a day do you spend on this app? I think it’s too much for me. 😆

Thinking of getting a lovely boob job to complete my aesthetic.

Ladies with a boob job - is it worth it?

I workout a lot I don't want it to hinder me

Also heard scary stories of women getting sicknesses from boob job.

I’ve been at my current job a month shy of a full year, yet I have already seen that there are not a whole lot of promotions or raises to stretch for, but part of that comes from being hired in a little green for the role. I’m currently negotiating salaries on the west coast and am nearly certain we will reach an agreement soon. How do I give my two weeks without burning bridges?
