Oof. Having been through it and come out the other side, I don’t think there is a class. Being resilient, being excellent so it matters less what people say about you, and being at the right firm around the right people (actual human beings do exist in this profession and working for them is so much better) all help, but those things aren’t really teachable skills.

I started tracking my net worth back in 2016 when I was 23. Currently 28 now and am fortunate to have had a bull market for the last 8 years or so (along with a $200k inheritance at 21) I’m currently a CPA and am interested in helping out anyone regarding any financial advice (free of charge, not a financial advisor) If you have any basic financial questions or want to chat about anything feel free to comment. I’m honestly willing to offer any advice that I can!

My PERM PWD was filed in early February and I’m still waiting. Almost all PWDs filed in the same month in my company have received determination, and all that are still in process are in the same department/team as me. I wonder what’s going on there.
What happens if a PWD takes more than 12 months to get approved? Would we have to file a new PWD since the 9141 wage survey is only valid for 12 months? (Feels like a PWD that takes >12 months to adjudicate would break the world record though).

Hello Fishes,
I am much stressed.. it’s only been 5 months to join Capgemini. I joined in as cyber security consultant with good package.
However, the work I do the tricks, logics and solutions I share with team to apply in the project… all are of no use when discussed with the architect guy. The whole team rely upon the wordings/solutions suggested by him only. It feels like my skill/knowledge and experience is of no use.
I feel like what am I doing here….? Any suggestions please.

Just scored 700 on my GMAT and I feel like a bag of crap. For reference, I put in 300+hrs into my studying, which is overkill but the course I signed up for took this long.

I wanted to use this to strengthen my app to BCG as an experienced hire and possibly for an MBA in the future.

For the MBA programs I'm looking at this score is fine but is this a score that can help my BCG app in a MCOL Canadian city?

PHEV (specifically, RAV4 Prime) yay/nay?

Expected use case:
Family car
Low mileage (<10-11k / yr)
4-5 days a week expecting less 30 miles per day
Weekends 100-200 miles altogether (occasionally)
Rare road trip use (1x or 2x / yr; <300 miles one way)
Have garage (to charge at home)

Chief Concern: "Best of both worlds" in engineering can mean compromises and complications, which can mean non-resilient/unreliable. But I'm no gearhead, so not sure if I'm making massive incorrect assumptions.

I've recently been going for my masters since it was the amount of extra credits I needed to sit for my cpa. Now im questioning if cpa is worth the effort. Does masters count for anything or do people only care about cpa amd is it worth it to get?
