Currently working on 1 sale 1 acquisition and 1 refi. Never more than that roughly. All take very different work loads (refi is rly easy, sale is more on the bankers, acq. is on us)

Typically looking at 1 platform at a time when have a deal under exclusivity, may have some work for add-ons for existing portcos, then evaluating 2-3 new deals at any times while working on a new platform under exclusivity. When not working on a new platform, will be looking at 7-10 deals in early stages.

I met someone in the new city I moved to but they work for Fox News. They are a good person but I can’t get over their employer and they said I was immature for that. Are all companies under the wrath of capitalism so I should overlook that? Or has Fox brought too much hate to the gay community to even consider a relationship while he works for them. Thoughts?

Asking for wife who's also in banking. If she got ~$100k in signing bonus in 2019 for 1 year commitment in CA and started FT in July 2020, assuming she leaves before July 2021, can her employer claw back full amount in California? Some say it's much tougher to do so under CA law but wonder if anyone has any insights. Banks won't likely care about analyst signing bonuses, but associate bonus at EB with diversity bonus can be significant. If she quits before, she won't be going to another bank.
