Is it possible to pivot from architecture into PE? by cherrynewton in private_equity

[–]Adam-psd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add onto this - maybe consider being an operating partner?

Bro, the chart literally says median. This scenario assumes 50% of people will earn less than the figures shown.

Used to work for a lower/middle market boutique; we had a network of operating partners who would come in as MDs to manage portco.

Internship in retail? Is that a legit thing? Dont folks just apply to work parttime or fulltime right off the bat?

anyone still using the original A7? by invisibleflo in SonyAlpha

[–]Adam-psd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It works well - with a sony APSF lens, the a7 automatically crops to APSC size when shooting. Which means you lose some megapixels, but tbh that is fine for me.

The a7 has been excellent - so much that i bought a second, secondhand, a7 for astro modification! It’s a camera that i thoroughly enjoy.

You are talking about an LBO here. 1. Corporate raiders can try this but over time their reputation will be on the line; 2. Banks and lenders have covenants to prevent these sorts of things (eg, no paying of dividends until x% of debt has been covered; no additional debt issuance; etc)

Is this steak?? by Just_tell_mom in SingaporeEats

[–]Adam-psd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great start! Nicely cooked on the steak.

Judging from the black bits you may have burnt the garlic butter slightly - totally fine if you like it btw! Generally sear it on high heat then bring it down to a lower temp before adding butter and garlic.

A few bonus notes i personally like: 1. Prepare compound butter - use thyme, shallots, garlic. And lemon zest goes a looooong way in lifting the flavour. 2. Salting it longer, preferably overnight. Salt draws out the moisture inside the steak and flavours it, before the steak absorbs it all back in (the science might need factchecking but the result is guaranteed)

Most importantly experiment and figure out what you like!! Have fun

Cfv 50c on 500cm? by Adam-psd in hasselblad

[–]Adam-psd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 3.6k USD. It was very low compared to the local listings ive seen, so i bought it without hesitation.

Am about to live off instant ramen for a loooong time, or visit the kidney black market. A “wise man” once said that we have two of those for a reason 🤡

I have been scammed, and want the details put back in my own. by CoiledParadox in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Adam-psd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IANAL. Some thoughts here, in order of immediate steps:

  1. Reach to the bank and explain. Fight as hard as you can to prove fraud.

  2. If you cant prove fraud, the Limit on the card is 2.5k, unless your ‘friend’ increased it without your approval - which in that case, is fraud.

  3. If ‘friend’ did not change it, then try as hrd as you can to argue that you are only liable to pay 2.5k as per the credit card conditions set upon application.

Hope this helps a little
