Restarting my keto journey!! Lost about 5kg the first time I did it last year, then got lazy and fat and now want to lose 10kg!

Anyone ever have experience negotiating a new offer to include unvested 401k match and stock grants from your current employer? I hate leaving money on the table but there are some good roles out there. I’m not fully vested in my current 401k yet and my stock grants haven’t matured yet either. This would be at a global director level.

Partner quit their job, and according to job contract, have to pay back "training costs" since they left before an agreed-upon amount of time. When it comes to taxes, how should I treat this amount?

I have significant equity in a property (300k+) and maybe another 200k across other properties. I have a decent amount of money in cash and already 200k or so in stocks. Would you consider pulling money through cash out refi and using it? I get nervous for stocks being so high. I have a few properties in pipeline already. How would you suggest using it (if at all).

Is anyone nervous about the whole Russia situation and how that may affect the market if an actual invasion takes place? Do you think it makes sense to take out investments just until things settle down, or even assuming the fed will increase interest rates? Thoughts?

Recommendations for best ways to save for retirement after contributing to 401k up to match and maxing out Roth IRA?

Got news that my house closing may have to be moved due to a delay in the sale of my home. My partner’s income was excluded in the DI ratio, but if it were included we’d be well under the % threshold and can be approved to close on time regardless of the sale of my house. However our mortgage company’s underwriting team has been painfully slow in confirming if her income qualifies. She’s been at her new job 1 month after a year off. Anyone with underwriting experience have insight?

My 911 just started production and I'm thinking about when it arrives. I've never financed an expensive car before, any tips? Do I go with Porsche Financial? My local bank? Other?

I’m 25 and have found a duplex I’m considering purchasing as a rental property. Planning on renting both units and have the cash to make the down payment without an issue. My cash flow analysis has a payback period of 3 years for my down payment and a 13 year payback period for the whole investment. I think financially it makes sense. My question is, is it realistic for a 25 year old young professional to handle dealing with all the extra curricular’s that come with owning a rental property ?

What’s the hiring market like in Texas for a 4th year investment management associate? I’m interested in Austin but understand there may be more opportunities in Houston or Dallas. Graduated with honors and on law review at a T14, if that helps at all.

Many companies are on a hiring freeze, as well as many layoffs have and are occurring. Does anyone know if this is temporary? Will there be an uptick in the coming next quarter?

Just found out the "roadside assistance" for my Tesla doesn't cover emergency battery recharging. Wish I realized that before it became an issue

Just got off the phone with a recruiter who asked me what year I graduated from my MBA program and college and effectively told me I was too old for the role. I do have the 1 year of experience they asked for in the job in question. It's just that I have all this other experience in things unrelated to the role or things I want to deemphasize in my next role. Is there anything I can do? I only list the last 8 years of experience (as it's most relevant) and don't have my graduation years listed.

Started Keto 40 days ago and jut broke the 20lb marker! Averaging 3.3 lbs/week, ~.55/day through keto and IF. Where's everyone else on their journey??
