So I am investing in a franchise and so need to save as much capital as I can. One of my wife’s closest friends is getting married in Florence this summer (just told us). We’d like to go, I’m not good with points, so wondering if anyone in here has a passion for getting the best deals via points who can help a fool out. I have 300K CSR, 100K AA, and 150K Bonvoy points to play with (though I’d like to not have to use all of them). TIA!

I have a 25K loan from my MBA. I paid off 100k whole, after graduation. 3 years ago, I moved my loan from federal to private ( SOFI) account. I recently lost my job. I have applied for unemployment, as the severance that I received will only cover for 2 months. Together my husband and I used to make less than 250k after tax. Now, with a loss of pay , we are going to make less. Do you think I will be eligible for Loan forgiveness?

People selling risky assets at the lows just to pile into safe heavens that barely appreciate seems like an logical investment strategy. Please stop. Invest in broad indexes and throw away the keys. If anything buy more as everyone sells. This is not rocket science, but as we know investing in difficult times brings out animal spirits. And animals are dumb…Good luck all
