Strategy& offers $240/day for food

Expense. We don’t get a per diem

F

100$ per diem at Deloitte/MD, down from 150$ a few months back. Mind you managers also expense meals regularly so you end up using keeping your per diem.

Kpmg is 95usd/day perdiem

I don't think we have a set limit on food consumption or anything as it's reasonable but I could be wrong

*as long as* it's reasonable

Are these allowances daily regardless if you're on billable work or at client site?

Hi,
I received an offer yesterday from JPMC.
I want to know when can I expect details about relocation benefits from HR. He took all the details about relocation 3-4 days before releasing the offer letter.

Will there be a separate relocation benefits email in recent coming days or it will be taken care of at the time of joining?
Thanks

Let’s say my annual income is ~$350k and I want my retirement savings to be ~$50K. 1. Max out my 401k+ Google match = $30,750. 2. Put $20K to after tax 401k with auto conversion to Roth 401k. I don’t need to worry about IRA then since I’ve already hit my target, right?

Does anyone else feel like the tragedy of this past year is that our profession went from a passion to just another job? And you are questioning more than ever if the benefits aren’t worth the cost? A normal year is tiring and we need our breaks for our health. This past year has spent our reserves and put us in debt. How do we take back the passion and own the profession as we transition back to yet another new normal?

I’m 29, make $75k and was planning to buy a house this year. With the market in its current state I don’t think I want to buy a house for 1-3 more years now. So I’m sitting with $100k in cash and about the same in retirement accounts. Given this fact pattern, do I let the cash sit in Ally or start pushing into the market? Also, since I hit my down payment and emergency fund goal, should I bump my 401k contributions up or is it ok to accumulate more cash?
