What do you want to do when you reach FI?

I have just got an options trader job at a prop trading firm. But I knew nothing about options/trading/finance. The firms said they’ll be officially training us once we start. But in the meantime, what are some books/resources that you would recommend to start learning first?

Anyone working as a 2 years + lawyer for Fragomen in Canada can share their salaries and working advantages? (holidays, billable hours etc). Got an interview coming up and want to make sure not to under-sale my profile!

Please let me know if you come across any such vacancy.

Is there such a thing as getting promoted TOO quickly? Just got the bump to AS after 10 months as an AE. Not at all typical at my agency (usually 5 to 8 YOE). I picked up a lot of opportunity after turnover last year. I am, of course, thrilled, but do wonder if it'd put the validity of my agency in question when looking at my resume. Am I crazy? I'm probably crazy.

Should I take Siegfried Offer?

Hi,

Anyone can provide review about Springer Nature Technology and Publishing Solution, Pune?

Company culture? Year to year hike? Work life balance?

Knowing that I’m 50% tier in my level, how can I go up to the 75% or the higher end of my level? My manager says I’m a competitive hire but it’s not reflected in the comp. So I’m super confused

Going to be bored over holiday season and was thinking about starting up the Python Institute Certifications (probably the whole roadmap). I would say I’m at an intermediate level currently. Anyone with the certs have thoughts on worthiness / best way to study / how it helped them in their career or job search? Thanks in advance 😄

B4 or A&M for FDD?

Let’s talk black tie: traditionally wristwatches were poor etiquette but some now consider them to be ok. Do you wear a watch w/ black tie? If so, any rules to which you subscribe (strap, dial, etc.)?

Planning to buy my fiancé a first luxury watch for a wedding gift. Budget of about 3k. Any suggestions? Additionally, how does one find a used watch dealer in NY if I am looking for something secondhand? Thank you!

Hi watch-lovers,
What are your thoughts on dan henry watches? Especially the 1964 bi-compass
Thank you

Is it frowned upon to have a nice watch as an associate? I was wearing a very average watch and got called out for “ice on my wrist”by a director with a casio

What brand should I look at for office wear? I have a rolex, which I love, but I would not dream of wearing it at the office… too flashy. I’m thinking of something nice, respectable, but not too ostentatious. Maybe like an Oris or something in the 2k range? Any suggestions?

Just getting into watch collecting. Question- do you guys buy insurance for your watches, similar to how you would for an engagement ring?

New to luxury watches. Want to give them as gifts to Doctors in the family for taking care of us during these tough times. Willing to spend upto 5k on one watch and 2k on other. Appreciate any guidance from this bowl.

Starting to restore old watches as a hobby (not for profit). Any suggestions where I can buy some pieces which need repair / service? I am still learning. So it doesn’t have to be fancy. I tried eBay and Chrono24 but didn’t have much luck. Feel free to recommend a local store in NYC.

Looking to buy Rolex OP. Thoughts on new vs used? Is the additional ~2k worth it for new?

$25k budget, build your best 3 watch collection. Thoughts?!

My initial hypothesis:
1) Omega Speedmaster Pro
2) Rolex GMT Master ii (batman, ideally)
3) IWC petite prince

Aqua terra or datejust 41? I know v different watches but just wanted to get the group think on this
