Find an etf and just put $ away regularly. Anything else requires significant research or is just gambling which is fine too. Throw a dart pick a stock see what happens.

How did this layer turn out?

Look into opening an E*trade account. You can do it where you manage the stocks or they invest for you automatically using an advisor. I put $1000 in to be managed by an advisor and my core portfolio is for growth and reduced risk. At a .79%^ in 1 day

Will Amex restricting guess access for Centurion Lounge actually make any difference?

I can see short term changes but the way Amex has been aggressively marketing Platinum card, we just will have overcrowding of primary card holders 🤷🏻‍♂️

What's next, everyone has to spend min. 50k a year to get Centurion lounge access or pay per visit.

Hi folks, my base location as per EY GDS offer letter is Noida but I want it to be Gurgaon as my hometown is in Jaipur and Gurgaon is more convenient for me.. I sent email to my senior manager and got response that you can use flexibility and work in any Gds office in India. However, I feel that in case my base location is not being changed, I should shift to Noida rather than Gurgaon as there might be any formalities or facilities which we need to avail in our base location only.. Any thoughts?

I find it intriguing that Trump turned himself into a billionaire on his father’s investments. Then, he became President. Suddenly, all of the people he’s been doing business becoming a billionaire are now also billionaires fighting for the Trillionaire Club status. His net worth is probably going to surpass them all in the end. Quadrillionaire isn’t even in my keyboard’s dictionary yet...but it will be soon.

I worked on campus all 4 years of college, started investing during the covid downturn and now 4 months into working full time I just hit $50k in investments 😃 growing up my parents were constantly in debt and worried about money so it feels amazing to have this much financial security aged 23 after years of working hard to make it happen!
