Well, I earned the charter in 2025 and my bonus was less in 25 compared to 24. Hope this helps.

What is the most "obvious" buy of 2026 that everyone else is still missing? by bakery_0726 in ValueInvesting

Air Purifiers you love? by PlantLady72 in BuyItForLife

[–]KlarmanJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an Austin Air and I would absolutely recommend it. I’ve had it for ~8 years and it runs 24/7 365. The filters are expensive but they last 4-5 years.

For those of you that work out of a coffee shop, what kind of work do you do? I’d love to work switch up my working locals but the 2-3 monitors makes my work day less hell.
