Oh joy. Delayed 2.5 hours... haven't left gate yet. Woof

Update... finally get to end of taxi...on runway...spinning up...and...we pull off. Go to penalty box. Ground stop at o'hare. Why did I expect anything else?

I had very much same story yesterday but in opposite direction. Stay strong!

I switched to Friday morning travel - it’s another night away but too many Thursday afternoon flights were going badly

United? I think your plane is the inbound flight that I’ll be waiting for to fly from O’Hare to DC

Guess I’m waiting for a different severely delayed flight from Newark to ORD

I’m sitting in LGA departure line now. Why does New York have the absolute, least efficient airports

LGA never leaves on time. If you’re delayed less than 5 hours = winning!

Hello all, i have. A question regarding compensation for a lateral move. I just received a job offer for an UA position from a competing cyber insurance carrier for $70,000 + bonuses. This job will be based out of San Francisco. I currently make $30/hour for the same role in Chicago, after OT it’s about $60,000. Do you think it would be wise to accept the offer? Thoughts in general?

What is a simple way to explain to my boyfriend that investing in equity with an expected return of 10% is better than paying off debt that is growing at a rate of 6%. He has student loans and is adamant that he wants to pay all of them off immediately before saving any retirement money. I understand that many individuals use this strategy but I think investing in index funds for the long haul is better from a wealth accumulation perspective, without even factoring in tax implications of 401k
