About 20% (combined net base income, between me and my wife). Goes up to about 30% including the car and garage

60-70%. But I’m in Hong Kong. And I don’t want to live in a shoebox.

0%... I own

SF 70%.

London, 45% because don’t want to live in a closet

Currently have the FRM title.

I'm hoping to eventually do CAIA, but only after I'm done with CFA. I'm also hoping to do non-financial certifications, like Certified analytics professional (CAP), and learn about web development.

While I may have the title of manager, I am still an individual contributor. The type of work I do involves quantitative analysis/data analysis/science.

Any suggestions as to what I should start with?

Serious question: Why’d we have to migrate our network logins to FCB Health in addition to our emails? Couldn’t we have just started listing our emails as “@fcbhealth” but logging in as “@FCB”?
Our old emails instantly forward to our current ones, so I don’t see why it couldn’t be the other way.

I saw another post in this bowl about the “perfect finance candidate” & someone said that the perfect candidate is likely a friend-of-a-friend or family member of a manager.

Recently joined an IB and I’m having a hard time adjusting. I’m almost 2 months in and am still struggling and getting a tonne of comments on my work.
It’s a very small team, and I’m one of three people in it. One individual micromanages me a lot in the sense that they keep sending me things over email even when they’re sitting right next to me.
I’m finding it very discouraging and I cry almost everyday. Sometimes it’s so bad that I have to use the restroom just to cry. Any words of advice?
