I'm tired of our firm's $50 gift cards as appreciation, especially after our project was chosen as the best among 50 projects. The reward feels inadequate - just peanuts and some swag. How does your company reward success? I'd rather ask for a bonus increase than receive these seemingly worthless appreciation cards.

Not sure about my current job (I just started in August) but I know my last job used to do PTO as rewards. They were in small amounts, sure, but lots of us would build them up to a whole day or even a week so that we could take a vacation. Then, I’m not sure what happened but they did away with that, and switched over to a raffle system. If you did well, you’d get a raffle ticket for a CHANCE at a prize (more often than not it was some lame company swag)…and that company wonders why there’s so much turnover

hope they got rid of the ridiculous raffle thing

529 Plan VERSUS Prepaid

We live in Florida and currently have a Freshman in High School and a 16 month old. We hear from our friends and family with college bound children "I wish we would have done Florida PrePaid." After obviously ignoring this for years, we are finally trying to do it before "it's too late" for both children.

Does anyone have recommendations on which plan to go with for each child? I once did the pros and cons on a whiteboard and it seemed like 529 was better.
