So let’s please talk about death. Not a fun subject.

My uncle passed away. he lived in another country so weren’t close. He was a very kind and sweet man. We found out he was sick yesterday and gone this morning.

How do you prefer to be approached for condolences? How soon? want different perspectives. Personally, I prefer to be left alone the first few days and not have phone convos. They’re awkward. Text is fine.

Wondering when and how to reach out to my other uncles. Call? Card?

Anyone check out Personal Capital?

They are offering free 6 months of management and after charge 0.89%.

Seeking feedback on GAP insurance. I had a family member who purchased a car in June or July. They were in an accident last week and it sounds like the car will be declared a total loss. Never dealt with this before, so wanted to ask if anyone has ever had an instance where the insurance didn't cover the outstanding balance of the loan and the insured then owed money? Car was $35k, $7k down, finance $28k. Gap insurance is through lender, not auto insurer.

Ok, you weren’t selected via an application, recruiter or company. But WHY? I’m just wondering when we’ll really understand the “whys” and might change our perspectives, or be a better applicant/professional/creative. The lack of feedbacks make us nuts.

Any and all insights are appreciated! :)

Does anyone know of where to find remote part time work opportunities for older Indian women? My mom was a part-time after school teacher but has not been doing that due to covid (dad is high risk).
