Should FMLA be more than 12 weeks? Why are Americans subject to cut off times for everything? Other countries would never! I feel like everyone should be able to stay out if medically necessary of course without the fear of losing their job. Especially if you are a seasoned worker!

I have agreed with this. I was out for a good bit of time for both of my kids to be born and I felt the stress of losing my job if I took too long or wanted more time with them. If anything, they should just say take all the time you need and have some sort of proof when you want to come back like a doctor's note or something.

Some companies actually respect their workers, especially long term employees. Some just don't care and it's sad to see that's a majority! :(

I have no idea and you'll never get it out of me.

Big 4 firms are extremely risk averse. It obviously depends on the infraction but this considerably decreases your viability as a candidate, especially if it is for inappropriate behavior or financial malfeasance.

Why has real estate remained lucrative?
Mainly agents but also developers.

The barrier to entry is low, not even sure if graduating high school is needed. My old agent even said she did it bc she can make a lot money and not work that much. She drove a new Mercedes and sent her kids to private school, husband was also an agent.

So I’m curious why it didn’t get flooded and the profit margin dampened to a $/hr closer to other jobs with similarly easy entry?

I have access to $600k in interest-only (~3%) funds from parent's line of credit. Trying to optimize allocation. I'm closing on a $540k house in TX, looking to Airbnb it for $3k+ a month. With rising interest rates, I'm considering investing in another house in the Bay Area when prices drop. Wondering if I should pay the TX house in cash & take out a mortgage for the CA house, or split the $600k across both and take out 2 mortgages, or pay off the TX house and use a HELOC for the CA house. Thnx!
