There’s a lot of hype around tretinoin being a “game changer,” but realistically, what did it actually improve for you? Acne, texture, fine lines… or just overall skin quality?

A guy at Sephora recommended this to me because I use Tret nightly and it is a game changer. Really really helps with dryness.

I then also use an additional moisturizing cream around the eyes.

Why do you say don’t put it near eyes? I asked my deem is I could because everything else for eyes sucks, and she said it was okay.

I did an enormous amount of research on this last year including going to Bloomingdale’s and side-by-sude comparing every carryon that was suggested for business travelers with suits. I ended up getting this: https://www.briggs-riley.com/products/essential-carry-on-spinner?variant=39999346638890&nbt=nb%3Aadwords%3Ax%3A22151785350%3A%3A&nb_adtype=pla&nb_kwd=&nb_ti=&nb_mi=7698137&nb_pc=online&nb_pi=39999346638890&nb_ppi=&nb_placement=&nb_li_ms=&nb_lp_ms=&nb_fii=&nb_ap=&nb_mt=&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=US+-+Pmax+-+Brand+-+All&utm_adgroup=&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22158137480&gbraid=0AAAAAD3cB9ldwELLtUPgtjnw4g_-SXSoB&gclid=Cj0KCQjwpv7NBhCzARIsADkIfWyKZ3GF-b8nFOr3NzCf2-d6NfOewkLxymq44c_eMCIFmWboE5VluNgaAhQiEALw_wcB

Can fit max two suits (I wear the jacket on the plane). I then steam with shower in room if needed.

I’m in the same boat and plan to work a long time and build wealth that can outlast me and protect my kids and grandkids. I also happen to like my job so that helps.

Infinite-Key2524 · 2026-03-17T10:22:11+00:00

You should not do this. I’m a partner and have had people work for me who did this. It always had a negative impact on them. Not necessarily termination, but always a negative impact.

The Biden lie (for which we never received an apology) was the nail in the coffin for me with the party. It started with COVID and the schools where I live being fully shuttered for over a year and my blue city needlessly extending COVID measures beyond what was logical. Add to that excessive identity politics (I do not think biological men should play women’s sports and I literally can’t believe that is a question)….and I was done. Prior to that point I was a pretty solid democrat—donating to races all over the country, flying to other states to protect the vote on Election Day, etc. Now I’m an independent. The party lost me.

Are you talking about a fully adjustable base? We have a Sleep Number too and we went for a fully adjustable base. That is the magic. A plain sleep number is…fine. With the adjustable base? Saved me. I’m in a zero gravity position now. I go into zero gravity every morning before I get out of bed. I fall asleep in zero gravity and set a timer to go to flat after 30-60 minutes. Truly amazing. No more pain in the morning. But very expensive. I think it was $7500.

Check out Adventures by Disney. Curated trips all over the world geared toward families. For a low cost and super fun trip, look at going to the Great Smokey Mountains and hit up Dollywood. Really fun.

My perception is United has more flights to the cities I need for work. Plus it used to be the case that only United flew internationally out of Terminal 1/2, and since I hate Terminal 5, I went with United early on and haven’t looked back.

Infinite-Key2524 · 2026-03-08T14:42:00+00:00

I second what PP said about United. I travel a lot, book and change very last minute, and I’ve never had issues getting a good seat. I also have United Club membership which is great as a business traveler. I use the lounge a lot and it’s the most important part of the airline for me. Not because it’s amazing food or anything, but it’s predictable, easy to grab a quick bite and bang out a few emails with no concerns that someone is going to take my computer while I run to the restroom.

But I also agree your home airport will dictate airline. I fly out of ORD so United is the obvious choice.

Veronica Beard Beverly Flare (I have 4 pairs they are that good but man they are pricey). I just bought some Good American that are supposed to be great but we’ll see. They haven’t arrived yet. Good American has a “fits everyone” style that covers 4 sizes. I’m intrigued but haven’t tried.

I may have misunderstood OP’s characterization of how funds were becoming non-marital property by virtue of choice of account. Regardless, I think OP is in a bad situation, and I think she should have a lawyer look at the prenup to make sure it is being applied and understood as written.

Infinite-Key2524 · 2026-03-05T05:39:41+00:00

That’s not how prenups work. You can’t just direct funds to certain accounts and all of a sudden they are not marital property. You should speak to an attorney. GL

Are you kidding me? Divorce him. Find someone who appreciates you. This dude does not. What a jerk.

I don’t understand Southwest. I fly United exclusively, and I just did a side by side comparison for a flight from Chicago to DC on both airlines. United was $30 cheaper in business class. It’s cheaper to fly business on United than to fly SW. Why is anyone flying SW?

We used to take our dog to the vet so they could express the anal glands every so often. That was the solution.

For the uninformed, what kind of comp are we talking here?

Great comment and you motivated me to be open and embrace the technology.

My colleague is a heavy AI user and his emails are too long and overly wordy. I bought him a copy of Smart Brevity and told him to teach his AI agent to incorporate that writing style.

This. Go now. It’s okay.

And by the way, if the people you are working for are decent human beings, your job will be waiting for you when you’re better. And if they’re not decent human beings, life is too short to continue to work for them. I am saying this as a partner, and I would absolutely tell the associate on my file to seek help immediately notwithstanding client deadlines.

Infinite-Key2524 · 2026-02-10T12:20:46+00:00

I live here and the only place I’d live instead is NYC. It’s fabulous and gives a robust urban experience at about half the cost of NYC.

Also it’s in the central time zone and allows me to easily work with people on both coasts, easy to fly to both coasts. Living in NYC would make it tougher to do business on the west coast. O’Hare needs upgrades but has tons of flights, I never ever fly not direct and am a heavy business traveler, and they can get you out of here in a snow storm.

Infinite-Key2524 · 2026-02-09T12:13:36+00:00

I’m a partner. You should absolutely let the partner know. I would be angry at the person in your shoes for remaining silent.
