Dude. Take Twilio with both hands and run. Twilio is going to be a massive company. You’ll make more money there than you will working in PE. Unless you have IB experience you’ll be working as a SME looking at ops. The money isn’t the same. If you go to Twilio, then take me with you. Else give me your offer.

Getting into the buy side at your level is more about finding a niche opportunity that aligns with your background (either ops or deals). Combination industry and consulting experience is usually better than just one. But it’s an uphill road either way.

Hey folks. Question for the majority of us still under the big 3 holding co’s...are raises a thing anymore? I’ve been at my (smaller) agency almost 5yrs and got one raise (a nice $12k bump) during that time—is that sufficient? Is one increase in that span normal? I also recognize being somewhere 5 years is rare these days. The honeymoon period at any agency seems to be 2.5—3yrs before bolting. Not complaining, just asking. Have y’all been getting raises/bumps in any kind of regular cycle? Thx.

We live in Florida and currently have a Freshman in High School and a 16 month old. We hear from our friends and family with college bound children "I wish we would have done Florida PrePaid."

Does anyone have recommendations on which plan to go with for each child? I once did the pros and cons on a whiteboard and it seemed like 529 was better.
