hey fishes! my fiance and i are gonna be making the move out to LA and would love some advice on neighborhoods and housing, as two people who don't know much of anything about LA.

- my new office is in the west adams neighborhood, so ideally we'd want to be within a half hour drive from there.
- we're looking to rent a house or bungalow if we can, our budget maxes out at about $3500/mo. is that feasible?

- also what neighborhoods around there are cool and/or quiet?

thanks!

any tips on going from media planning to strategy or account?

My boomer mother is retired HR exec. Whenever I ask for recommendations on address situations at work she recommends I get over it because I work from home. My new manager has boundary issues and talking it over with my boomer, I mean mother, I was told “who gets to do laundry at lunchtime?” Mmmkay, just because I had to buy the desk I sit at doesn’t mean I don’t work. 🤬 Burn my childhood home down or put her in a home?

Does anyone have suggestions for good botox places in the city? Thanks

Less of a confession and more of a rant. Parties aside, I think we need to get rid of omnibus bills, need to put a page length max, and it may sound dumb but bills should be written so an average highschool social studies student can easily decipher The Who/what/when/where/why of it all. Also think that it should be illegal for politicians to skip out on a vote or not vote. Never understood packaging nasa funding with adding laws for police or something. Also add a deliberate cost breakdown .

Are there any specific steps to take with this kind of transaction? Is it as simple as withholding 15% of the Sales price from the seller to remit to the IRS or is there more to it?

Thoughts on CAIA? Difficulty, hours studied, study tips, overall experiences, etc.? I’ll be sitting for Level 1 in September. Currently work in the fund of funds space - moving over to my firm’s hedge fund research team soon so CAIA seemed like a perfect way to get knowledge in the area beforehand. I’m almost one year out of undergrad (econ background) so a lot of the CAIA content is new to me

Does anybody else have clients that want to be “innovative” and “disruptive” but the second you share a really cool, insightful, big idea with them that’s on strategy they proceed to fumble like fools and just want to focus on basic block-and-tackle tactics and never actually do anything that’s innovative?

I’ve been dealing with this for years and I never understand why some clients sell themselves as disruptive when they’re scared to do anything daring or spend any money.

What’s your take on working along side a team in marketing but barely any of your team enjoy the social present, let alone having actual social accounts.

Thoughts?

Does anyone else get post pandemic “get back to normal” anxiety?? I want everyone to be healthy and happy and the suffering over Covid to end. But I can’t go back to “normal” life. I can’t go back to the life of an overflowing calendar being glorified. I feel like I’m sinking deep into an introvert lifestyle, which is not the bubbly, busy, and extroverted person people know me to be. But I’m scared of what the post pandemic social expectations will be and not being able to keep up.
