My husband said he would buy me a Rolex as a “push present” for our first child. I would want just a classic, timeless (no pun intended) looking ladies Rolex watch that I can wear for many years to come. Suggestions on a style? I really don’t know anything about them and would like to get some opinions on what people like since there are so many options.

It would have to be the Datejust with stick indices and jubilee bracelet. Stainless steel or two-tone depending on your wardrobe and style. Simple, classic, and timeless. End of thread. Enjoy!

I've had my yellow gold DateJust for 20+ years and I love it. My only comment is this: The watch is gold, as are the face and hands. It looks so classy, I can dress up or down with it, but at times it is difficult to tell the time because of the lack of contrast between the face and the hands. Easier during the day because of shadows; a little more difficult in the evening. It is, in fact, a timeless piece and I still get tons of compliments on it.

Date just, olive green dial, jubilee bracelet. Absolute classic!

This is awesome. OP: what look do you like? Yellow gold? White gold / stainless? Middle of the road bling or super understated? Diamonds or nah?

Going on a parental leave in a month. Anyone know of any remote, freelance/part time I can do to still make money on the side? Out side of Uber/Lyft etc

Hi Fishes,

I want to set up a small business in Rajasthan (remote area) for my father, I don’t want him to leave home and stay with family.

Can you please give some ideas on what can be setup for consistent long term profit and also setup cost is not that high.
Thanks in advance.

Is anyone concerned the push for sexual equality in pay without accordant leveling of parental leave is gonna backfire?

Here’s a hypothetical:

A company has 2 candidates, aged 25-30, equal in every respect save one’s a man the other’s a woman. Maybe the woman is a slightly better candidate overall. They’d have equal comp.

Company considers the woman a riskier bet due to possibility she’ll take maternity leave — and considers the man less risky for his ineligibility to take as much leave. 🤷

My father took a home loan, and the same home is kept as mortgage.
I'm paying arround 22k emi for the same but unable to exempt tax as the loan is on my father's name.

I googled a lot how to transfer it but neither gift deed nor sale deed would work as the property is on mortgage that's under bank's ownership (until loan is fulfilled).
Tax is also getting deducted, I'm paying hefty emis.
What can I do?
Please advise 🙂
