Buy every dip more than 4-5%. Dont expect 15-20% type of dips.

I know time > timing and DCA; interesting how market reacted to election

Wait for investors to see the growing coronavirus count. As they say for market, it is at all time high in Us :)

Yea there was like a 10% dip in tech. Is everyone waiting for Dow $10,000? Or for Satoshi Nakamoto to delete all bitcoins?

Rip. Everything hasn’t gone up too much though. Just but some long calls

We did get a dip. Just a few days earlier than expected.

Thoughts on “special” salary grades. I just found out the VP I was offered is not a grade 12 like most comparable roles (verified). Also not an 11, but an 11A. Slightly higher than an 11, a good bit lower than a 12. All due to the fact that it’s a leap from my current position. Why should that matter…..shouldn’t it pay what it should pay if I am selected, rather that curving down towards my current rate?
