I just started a new job and am about to be 36. I want to start a family but I feel like I should be waiting due to this new job. However I don’t want to miss out. I’m thinking about freezing my eggs

Had a miscarriage.. it’s my 1st baby and we didn’t find out until 12 weeks (via ultrasound) that the baby passed away at 9 weeks and had to get a dnc. My body is still recovering.. Just want some hope or I guess stories of success after having a miscarriage. I do have pcos so it’s harder for me to get pregnant.. but it still happened. Anyone have any thoughts or advice? Does it get better..?

Anyone in DC or Maryland have a good doctor for PCOS?

Just started progesterone suppositories. Anyone else worried that you are starting them either too early or too late in your cycle? I read that too early can increase risk of tubal pregnancy…

Had a colleague tell me she requires all Guarantees signed in an individual capacity notarized. I asked her if she still sends breakaway signature pages and she said yes of course. Wouldn’t whatever protection having the execution witnessed/notarized be negated by the fact it wasn’t attached to anything?

Considering becoming a consultant lawyer. Any advice/tips from someone who made that move?

I need to do a case prep. Let me know if anyone is available today or tomorrow? Based on ET

How much is a common value of equity options to see a new hire (manager) get?

Feeling that I never land an offer from Google. I have tried many times and in my last try, I passed phone screening but recruiter ghosted me...
I am not sure what is wrong...
When I apply with referral, my resume always pass screening and shared with managers. But then no response.
When I get feedback on my resume and experience, people always mention "impressive". I feel desperate...Being in less challenging role at Amazon makes everything worse.

I am Finance Analyst. Any suggestions? Ideas

Do you think any of the major cruise line companies will go bankrupt? Debating if I should invest.

Travel nursing- I'm really considering taking one of the mega paychecks jobs in the hardest hit states.

What’s the best advice you’ve ever received? Life or career wise

How do you find in-house positions?

For folks that filed AOS in October and still didn't get their receipts, what options do we have? I'm getting very concerned. Has anyone had luck calling uscis and getting their receipts emailed?

Has anyone experienced delay in getting physical copy of the H-1B approval notice? The USCIS portal says - the case has been approved. Is it safe to join new firm based on approval notification?

Can someone tell me what is GME doing? Is the endgame really a thing? Sorry, I know a lot of people don’t want to hear about it anymore.

8/3 Thread (General):

Anyone bought some MAC? What is your reasoning and potential fair value?

I know this is an options bowl where most members believe the market will go down, but are there any buy and hold investments you really like?

Can anyone share any equity positions that you like?

UBER & LYFT puts tomorrow?

Thoughts on CSIQ? It is sitting near all time highs but has not jumped like crazy from pre-pandemic. It’s at a 25% premium. It has solid fundamentals. It may be a solid option after it hits the 50 day SMA.

anyone gonna buy any calls before market close?

I have just got an options trader job at a prop trading firm. But I knew nothing about options/trading/finance. The firms said they’ll be officially training us once we start. But in the meantime, what are some books/resources that you would recommend to start learning first?

Oh Elon.... 500x returns for some put holders who bought OTM today...

Dry powder coming in Monday morning and steel companies have been on my watchlist all week. Already in CLF, but it’s hitting the top of its channel so pullback might be coming - will load up if it does. Going to find an entry price into $MT 30c 2022 and avg down if stock dips.

$WOOF will be (or already has) catching momentum soon. 25/30c for July/Sept could still profit off the rising IV and underlying might spike soon. Probably just gonna watch it for fun on the sidelines 😂

A great time to invest in Microsoft and Apple? Your thoughts? Which one should you buy more shares of?

Anyone going to play AMZN earnings? It’s hard to say if we will still have low expectations this quarter but have to think AWS has done real well this quarter. It’s probably too early to tell how much WMT + is stealing business. The wild card is if they announce stock split.

Does it seem crazy to you that gambling in most states is illegal but we can buy short term option contracts. It’s crazy I can’t go put $20 on Black at a casino but can buy 5k of a same day spy contract. 

I’m seeing lots of posts about really bad losses. If you trade you’re going to lose money - hopefully not all the time, but many positions will be mistakes. But you need a process to find ideas and manage positions. Two books you should read are “The New Trading for a Livinng” and “The Laws of Trading.” Both look at psychology, process, and risk in different ways that can help you work out your own process. The next 18 months will be much harder than the last 18 - time to start learning.

I’ve been trading options all year on Robinhood. Also have long term equity holds bought over last 2 years. Is there a simple way to see my realized gains or loss for the year? I know the paper value, but not sure what has been resized. I do 10 trades a week so would be miserable to try to add up. Thanks!

Yes! AMC up 20% today which means I’m now only down 10%. lol. Diamond.....hands? 🤷‍♂️
