Ok guys. This week I challenged myself to not eat at restaurants at all. I figure I would save money and lose some weight. I mealed prepped all my meals (chicken and veggies). What I found was I saved a money, gained a pound🤷‍♂️, and had an extra hour of free time each day.
I also didn't have any Dutch bro or Starbucks drinks.
How many times do you eat out each week?

What are some good healthcare/pharmaceutical etfs that you would recommend?

For those who had a successful pregnancy with ivf, do you remember when or if you had the symptoms? I am now 10 days post transfer and dont really feel anything except lazy and tired but that could also be from progesterone supplements.

Wanting to know what IVF coverage other consulting companies have. EY, McKinsey, BCG.

I feel like my brain is dying. I can barely think let alone think of good ideas. I’m angry and depressed and it’s consuming my thoughts.

Anyone have tickets to Dallas arboretum for tomorrow they don't plan to use?! 😬

Have you ever felt uncomfortable treating a patient? I don't feel unsafe, and the patient isn't making me uncomfortable physically or anything, I am just seriously disturbed by the discussions we're having about what they're going through. I've been working at this hospital 4 years and this is the first time this has ever happened. Is it wrong to consider asking for a transfer?

So I feel like I want to keep eating something all day. Even though I'm full and not really hungry. It's the thing of chewing I guess. What to do to combat this?

Okay fish what is going on: I'm still eating at my caloric deficit, working out 1hr x 5-6 days / week, my measurements are smaller BUT I've gained 2kg in 2 weeks - what gives?

Any good grief counseling in Chicago or remote? My dad has late stage cancer and is dying. Need help to process this.

I know this may sound like a question but I'm not sure how far along am I. My last mense was we 8/2. My embryo transfer was 8/23. I did my blood test on 9/1 and it was positive. How do I know how many weeks am I?

Friendly reminder that depression is a protected disability. File paperwork with your company and they legally cannot destroy your health by overworking you.

Unpopular opinion on flattening the curve: ok we all know we need to extend the tail at the end... how bout that tail at the beginning? I mean I'm in a midwest city where cases are hardly [cont]

My fellow connoisseurs, I'm going through some things right now and not doing so hot. That's as much as I'd like to say right now. If you pray, I'd ask that you pray for me to have the strength to get through what I'm going through. I'd appreciate it. I don't want my drinks to end.

Thoughts on buying into Wells Fargo now, at their 52 week low basically.. Bank too big to fail of course and their imposed caps on grown expire in a year or 2 I believe with regards to how much $$$ they can lend out or take in...

Fishes honest opinion needed. Me and My so presently live in Arkansas, living in our first home with a child 4 year, both of us recently changed our jobs and have HHI ~ 420K, current mortgage 1600/month. We are looking to move to Dallas and thinking of buying a house ~996K with a 15% down. Questions -
1. Should we go for house of that budget? We can afford, but asking based on market.
2. Should we down 15% or just 5% ? Or go for 20% ?
*Getting a rate lock 4.25% 🤞🏼

Newbie trying to get a better understanding: is it better to max the 401K or just hit company 401K match and max Roth IRA first?

Hi all, I am trying to DCA bi-weekly into Vanguard ETFs, (VO, VTI etc). It seems like Fidelity does not support auto buying of non-Fidelity ETFs. So I was wondering which of these options you think is best?

1. Open a Vanguard Invest account
2. Look for Fidelity ETFs that are similar to Vanguard ETFs
3. Use smaller brokerages like SoFi l, Robinhood etc.

I really do not want to manage nor be active. My goal is to log-in like once every 6 months.

Thank you all.

Has anyone made a big bet to try to attempt to retire early? It seems like everyone in this bowl focuses on traditional, conservative investing. Going that route I’m gonna be a wage slave all my life
