Pro tip for anyone in this bowl with college aged kids: instead of them getting jobs at a bar or as a receptionists or normal college jobs, encourage them to get into luxury retail.
1) get a great discount (70%ish) and if you’re in this bowl, you shop there anyway
2) paid better than most college jobs- $20+/hr and commission
3) most ppl don’t get jobs after college- luxury retail is a good pay industry that they can grow in
4) not crazy hours
I did LV and Tiffany in college.

Good idea! Thanks, OP. I'm going to mention it to my daughter. She'd have a lot of fun & make better money than other retail stores or most restaurants.

Thank you for your thoughts. I might show this to my daughter since she is into luxury brands. She might use her interest in getting into the retail job.

Make sure she’s not going for a department store. They don’t have the best discount and it’s harder to make a lot in commission. My recommendation would be to choose 3-4 stores, and work at a different one each year of college. Collect all the things you want via discount, and move on to the next. By the time she comes out of school, she’ll have a fantastic collection and be able to focus her full time income on other things other than shopping.

Not saying to exploit your kids. But, if they’re going to have a job anyway, may as well be a good one. I have a lovely Diamond collection from my time at Tiffany and an LV collection no one my age could.

Hey guys! I just received luckily enough two offer from two big companies: one as a Senior UX in SAP Concur and another one at Microsoft as a Designer II in Microsoft Teams. The role matters until a certain point to me. What does it matter is career and learning perspectives. Do you have any previous experience with one of the two companies? All feedback or comment is very much appreciated, thank you!

Interested in everyone’s opinions on replica luxury.

What’s your argument for or against replicas?
