Hi Fishes,

Anyone have idea on the Marriott international project in Accenture?

Best Marriott points property in Bangkok? Going for a few days in July

In the past, when flying United, buying upgrades to fly first class did not book you additional miles or dollar spend, even though upgrade costed ~$600. Is that changing with the new program?

Anyone willing to PM me with their Marriott Ambassadors contact info? Mine resigned and I need someone to work magic on a property that won’t let me book with points for a family vacation. TYIA!

Hi Fishes,

My wife is getting transferred to California from India and she is offered 143k.

How much she can get after tax deduction and all? How much she can save after all the expenses?

She is insisting that I travel with her and get the job in the US. I'm a software developer having 4.1 YOE. How much can I get in the US? Is it worth traveling with her?

Any information would be helpful, Thanks in advance...

Hi! I have a Marriott Free night certificate (it’s says it’s worth a free night of up to 40k points). Has anyone used these for properties going for more than 40k?

How were the travel opportunities in KPMG Global prior to the pandemic ? Esp. in management consulting

My parents have been helping out a bit with child care for the past few months during the pandemic so that my husband and I can work. I’d like to get them something as a “thank you” but am coming up short on ideas. Our first idea was a night away (pay for hotel, dinner, etc.) but they aren’t traveling due to COVID. Has anyone done something similar or have any ideas? Thanks in advance!
