Seconds before pulling the trigger on a GS Snowflake, the Rolex AD does the first useful thing he’s ever done for me and alerts me to an incoming Explorer I 214270. I should buy the Explorer, yeah?

Do you want the explorer or the snowflake? I'd see myself holding onto the GS snowflake for longer / ever but that's just my personal pref, the explorer looks sharp too!

Depends. Snowflake is better looking imo but explorer will hold value and probably be more robust

Yup

Yup. Had the snowflake; sold the snowflake. Have the Exp1; will never sell the Exp1.

Get both

What’s your Venmo op? I’m feeling charitable :)

I personally don't know too many snowflakes at Goldman Sachs

Boo

Hell yeah.
Worst case scenario, you have an awesome, super liquid watch

Love it.

So I could use some advice for my startup. We currently are putting finishing touches on our MVP. We don’t really have any users, but we’re not sure if we should first try to secure funding (without users) or build up the user base first then go for funding. How much value do VC’s place on users before funding and how many users would they like to see for preseed funding. Any feedback is appreciated.

I need some insight on my salary. I've been working at a large insurance brokerage for 14 years now and am a Senior Account Manager.

I've recently found out from someone who left the company, who was in an entry level account management position, was making only $20k less than myself. Am I being fairly compensated?

For anyone who owns two or more watches - how much do you wear each? Several months back I bought a second watch and have not worn the first since. Out of habit I just wear the same watch every day. I still like the first watch and don’t want to sell but also realize it’s smarter to sell if I don’t wear it. Anyone struggle with this and have tips on how to get into the habit of rotating?
