Has anyone set up a business trust to hold assets such as real estate?

£50k TC, 2.6YoE working within the change arm of a bank ——- what do experienced fishes think is a good next move for someone like myself? Might want to move into consulting one day with ultimate aim of MBB but also enjoy technical coding work, particularly in credit risk / counterparty credit risk in banking — could use some fresh perspective ; quite confused atm as interested in many things! Don’t mind staying in change management either TIA - appreciate any advise

I was married for 3 years & she left 1 day bc she realized that she was no longer “happy”. A week later, I caught her in a parking lot w/ her coworker & finalized the divorce. In my mind she was perfect in every way except for the infidelity. After 8 months of therapy and on and off dating, I got into a new relationship but I became commitment phobic & see flaws when I compare my ex to my new gf. 1yr has passed now and I still feel like I’m settling and not mad in love. Wwyd? 2y since divorce.

NDAs for Nannies? I was wondering how everyone who is doing some work from home during covid handles in-house caregivers? Obviously we all take all steps to protect confidential information and realistically a caregiver isn't going to be exposed to anything we do, but does anyone require an NDA just to be on the safe side? (I dont have an in home caregiver yet, but just thinking about it.)

Is there anyone who recently got offer from Accenture UK? I received the offer last week and waiting for PWC team to contact me for further documentation.

Is it easy to transfer within Accenture, e.g. if you wanted to leave CEO & ES for another area?

A NY agency is asking me to work on site come September, I said of course. My true intentions? Working remotely from Florida for life. How would y’all handle this issue when pandemic is over (if it that ever happens)?

Any Recommendation institute or website that offered access to SAP ARIBA or EWM Instance Training Server ?

I finally have an extra room to set up a home office. I’m looking at motorized standing desk, but there are so many options out there that it is overwhelming. What’s your recommendation for an L-shaped desk?

Seems like hiring has slowed down but i feel we are in for another bout of great resignations due to companies calling it's employees back now and employees finding ways to continue WFH. The ones who get lucky continue WFH while not so lucky ones will start switching and startups and other mid level companies cashing in on the talent. Looks like it's the lull before the storm.

Which luxe car do you own/ lease? I’m gravitating towards leasing a Mercedes.

Is an IPO in anyone’s FIRE strategy? Maybe this is specific to the Bay Area, but it doesn’t seem that unrealistic to negotiate enough equity to make $1.5 mill off an IPO. Or maybe I’m dreaming 😂

Why do seagulls fly over the sea?

Because if they flew over a bay, they would be bagels

Promotions finally announced to all staff and bonuses in the this pay period. How's it looking for the rest of y'all! Generally happy or more ready to bounce?

Curious how everyone is doing with their coworkers these days amidst the current political climate. I know our field tends to lean conservative so just curious how you're dealing.

Come on peeps, let's show the world accountants aren't boring..... or are they?

Anyone in transactions advisory at Deloitte, KPMG, PWC or Valuation at Duff & Phelps? Would like to understand the culture there. EY is not working for me.

Having gone through a very underfunded public school system I felt inadequate and I was able to coast by through college. Though I feel like Im capable now I still feel inadequate sometimes. Thoughts?

Anyone looking to get in at BDO?
Separately, anyone in the southwest or looking to get to the southwest?

2020 and this first full week of 2021 were the pushes I needed to finally get a therapist. How are y'all holding up?

Any thoughts to the group on the states opening up?

AZ here - I think it's too soon

Would you ever mentor a junior accountant at your firm? Do they reach out to you? I really would like to help more younger people get into the industry.

I feel like the stereotype about being an introvert and an accountant don't apply to black ppl. Everyone I met that's an accountant is LOUD, okay lol

Does any one feel way behind the curve and wish they had mentors in accounting to speak to on a family level that you can trust and know they really want you to succeed?

I’ve been lurking at the net worth/savings posts on here. I started out negative and am still negative and working on it. Is it common amongst minorities or just me? My folks couldn’t help.

I didn't get to go to NABA this year! Hopefully next year! What are the best things about the conference? What are you going to do differently next year!?

How far into your career did it take before working at a place that had black people in leadership positions? I have yet and it's making it hard on me to seek out mentors or even friends
