It used to be. The building was built in the 60s or something and there are much nicer more modern office buildings with better amenities now.

United is in the old EY space and it’s much nicer, and they’re gutting the whole lobby and outside of Sears so it might be nice again.

What’s the deal with the EY Chicago office at 525 Monroe though?

Rent was simply too high for the space.

Bc they left and got new space at cheaper rent? Are you asking why aren't they still there?

They should be from a branding perspective

The current building is nice

Sears is old and tired brand that is now bankrupt! Nobody even knows what Willis is so exactly how is our brand helped by staying there???

It’s the tallest building in Chicago (2nd tallest In western hemisphere). It’s iconic. People know it and associate it with success. No one knows what 155 n upper Wacker drive is....

I already travel a lot and this boundary is super important to me. Am I right or wrong?

Hey all I have an opportunity to buy a vacation home as a private sale from my parents (they are buying a new house in that area and need to sell the old one), it is waterfront property in NH 10 minutes from Mt Sunappee. I am concerned that making this purchase may make me a little cash poor in the short term, but still manageable. Would it make more sense to rent out the property through a rental company that included insurance and cleaning or to put it on airbnb?

I started at a new firm this year in January. I had a billable goal that was given to me mid year of around 1750 house for the year. I am nowhere near that and definitely will not meet the goal. I had so many non billable hours I was forced to take when I first came in. I worked my ass off in busy season. At my previous firm I never fell short of hours as it was B4. This firm is mid sized and more focused on WLB. My question is how bad do you think this will affect my comp??

Hi tax 🐠,

I have a question for those who prep individual tax returns. My parents claim my grandfather as a dependent on their tax return and due to their low income, receive PTC for the premiums they pay on his insurance (not eligible for medicare). However, would it be advantageous to have him file for his own tax return (he stays with my parents and doesn't have his own proof of residency via bills). If so, can he get PTC if his income is 0?
