Don’t password protect the whole site. If there’s a sensitive piece just password protect that part of the site.

Not red flag. Many valid reasons to have password.
I have one, to keep my book ‘fresher’ - if I can’t get new book-worthy work to add often. Casual lookers is not who I want, I want actively looking to hire peepers on my book.

And I know exactly who checked out my book when they ask for my password.

My book is password protected because it’s old and I haven’t updated it and I don’t want anyone looking at it.

I do plan on updating soon and will go live.

I have a few things that will need to be password protected because the client or agency required such. But only a couple.

I am on H1B, and currently based out of bay area, CA. Can I buy property/ real estate in TX or GA for purely investment purposes and use rental income from that to offset mortgage payment and generate cash flow. Is that okay to do on H1B? Any advice from people who have done this or from legal folks in this bowl will be helpful.

Happy New Year 🎆

I'm early in my career, managed to save $30K to invest, and want to get my hands dirty with a rental property without too much risk (e.g. no HML/flipping). It sounds like that's a tall order in the NY/CT area given the prices, not to mention whether I'd be able to get a mortgage on anything below $100K, but I figure I'll give it a shot anyway. Any advice on what you might do in my position? Am I being crazy with this idea?

Career advice that I give to the people I manage- do one more thing everyday that you weren’t going to do or didn’t feel like doing- for your team or for your client. Could be notes, a follow up, a reminder, raising your hand to tackle and drive something-whatever. That little extra effort against something you didn’t “have” to do, every day, overtime will make you invaluable

Hey CDs and ACDs: when you were mids and seniors what do you wish you'd had to help you grow and get to the stage you're at now?

I'm a senior AD and all the resources out there are for juniors. I'm not sure what I need - I feel pretty confident in most areas - so maybe all I need is time to practice and get better. But is there something you did/wish you'd done to improve your abilities, develop your career path, or open your mind?
