With all the recent Marriott devaluations / issues, go with Hilton

Fairfield isn't that good. I'd give Hilton a try

Looks like I'm going to Hilton. Thanks for the input y'all

Nice Marriott is out of budget range ($230/n), budget Marriott Fairfield is good for long-term project (eventually $84/n). Hiltons Garden Inn seems like a step up and is within project budget (eventually $120/n). I like Marriott but if my only option is to use a budget-ish hotel, is it really worth it over Hilton?

Yep, Hilton

Big fan of HGI

Hyatt is the wayb

If it is a new Fairfield, they seem to be on par with the HGI. If an older Fairfield, then go with HGI.

Recently joined the firm as a project delivery specialist. During recruiting, the team harped on how great my background was and how much a good fit I would be for the firm/project...

Well, I was on an onboarding call and they were talking about staffing and projects. The presenter said to reach out to them if you don’t think your project is a good fit. In his words “you were hired into the firm, not a specific project. We see you here long term... With the exception of PDM model” 😅

My client wants both parties to list assets & liabilities as an exhibit to their prenup without values, but waive the right to know the actual valuation of those in the prenup itself. My initial thought is this is a terrible idea & would probably make the prenup easily voidable since a main requirement for a prenup is for both to understand the nature and value of the other’s assets. I will research in my jurisdiction to confirm, but has anyone ever heard of/done this? Thoughts?
