Lots if buyers but we know of many, many deals that have been made. Reaching out to advisors at the wires who are contemplating retiring is effective.

Hi Fishes,

l interviewed for Deloitte (India not USI) in January, and accepted an offer letter with DOJ of 25th April, later HR asked me to join on 11th April for which I agreed. Now I haven't received the revised offer letter or any links other than BGV and Pre-Hire form from Deloitte and now the HR is not even picking my calls or responding to emails.

Any advice on what to do?

Has anyone heard about layoffs happening in agencies these days?

Just found out I got laid off. Cheers to the weekend 🍺

Hello my fellow shoal of fish. I am seeking recommendations for a lounge chair in my office. I currently have the adjustable stand desk and a relatively comfortable office chair (not when reclining) but the other half of my office is empty. Im putting in a 55” tv and need a recliner, lounge chair, or something of the sorts to put in front of the tv. Something where i can put my feet up. Conference calls are such a drag when i have to sit at my desk.

If anyone is interested in a referral code for a Chase Sapphire Preferred card go ahead and comment so I can dm the link.

Great card for travel, points come fast and great perks for travel.

Hoping to help anyone!

Chicago & suburbs: seeking advisor min $20m AUM to change firms and team with me at my RIA to service clients better as co-advisors and build practice. Great tech, transition, and admin support!

Think about this for a minute... why would you sell a book? Because you didn't want it anymore or it was beyond its useful life, kinda like an old car... it's old, rusty and needs more maintainence than it provides useful transportation, it's in the repair shop more often... everytime it goes in you find something else wrong with it? Plus, the prices the buyers are willing to pay are outrageous, by the time you get it paid off it's in the junk yard. No easy solution to building a sustainable business except hard, persistent work.
