Hm. How long does 1gb get you? (Sorry not tech savvy at all)..or maybe just where would I go to get one of these/inquire about this stuff?

^im a technotard (techno + retard) 💁🏽

It's based on what you do with it. If you just do work related stuff, it should last at least 1-2 full weeks

What about for like streaming Netflix and stuff for personal use? (Because most of the time I would be at client site working or at hotel connected so really I'm just concerned about home and on the road)

Streaming will take a considerable amount of data especially for devices with big screen. For that, the best would be to have a phone plan with unlimited data and use it as a hotspot

I was thinking about that route actually. Was going to switch to Cricket (because it's cheap and I'm cheap haha)..maybe go unlimited with them? Doesn't that burn through the cell phone battery pretty quickly though?

Not sure about Cricket's coverage. T-mobile should have a better coverage and their unlimited plan is reasonable as I know. Metro should be good too. Yes, it drains your battery. Have a portable battery with you all the time if you can't plug in your phone

Hm. Things to think about 🤔

I think for internet use at the client site, you should be able to use their network. For hotel, if you do some actual work, you should be able to expense it. You pay for the night, so work for 30 mins and the rest is Netflix lol

Recently started my own firm and interested in others thoughts. Are there resources out there for practical advice or is it only something that comes with experience?

But if a client asks me is it better to marry my fiance in her home country, bring her here on a K-1 or have her visit on a B-2, that's not learned from a book or webinar. How does one learn how to evaluate new cases?
