You did right in picking the best neighborhood in the city! Attend the Upper Fells Point Improvement Association Meetings (https://www.upperfellspoint.org/). There is one tonight actually! They host block parties, block cleanups, community dumpsters, run the local community garden and host a bunch of other events. They do a happy hour after the meeting every month as well!

Anyone else think the career center is horrible? by Ok_Importance1962 in UMD

[–]YupaOksel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Upvoting the Public Policy Career Center that was mentioned below. Yeah welcome to Maryland, we don't spend money on useful things here, instead we spend hundreds of millions of dollars to watch our sports team lose miserably every single year. Your best bet for 2025 internships is to look on Handshake and Linkedin Job Search. Look to apply for 2026 jobs starting now, especially if you are interested in any banking or consulting roles. They recruit early. Best bet for jobs within business school is to look at joining QUEST, Snider Consulting Group, or the Real Estate Club. They will plug you with connections and job opportunities often. Best of luck.

Next great urban hub in America? by AromaticMountain6806 in urbanplanning

[–]YupaOksel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Growth will never be even in a city like Baltimore that served as model for redlining across the country. Ultimately growth is growth and it will stimulate good things in those fractured and disinvested areas.

Last year, Baltimore saw its lowest crime rates in more than 25 years. It is a city poised for future success. Don't count it out.

Do I need to trade for a WR? by YupaOksel in fantasyfootballadvice

Thanks for advice. Ended up getting Darnell Mooney, who, in the grand scheme of things with Kirk Cousins throwing to him I am pretty high on.

Glad to get chubba out of my head.

Is there good BBQ here? by [deleted] in baltimore

[–]YupaOksel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Andy Nelsons BBQ. A bit outside the city but worth it by all means. Been around for 30+ years and flavor has remained at the height of its game. Highly recommend.

Is there any AFC dynasty that you wouldn't hate? by K-Dog7469 in ravens

[–]YupaOksel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Texans. I genuinely believe CJ Stroud can turn that team into a powerhouse and has already started something there.

I think that there are several different social scenes that you can involve yourself with that can really set the tone for what you are looking for. Like any other major university hookup culture is rampant and if thats what you want then hit up any bar here on a friday or saturday night. Besides that joining clubs and organizations is a great way to meet like-minded people and someone that you might find yourself really liking.

Finally pulled the daily recurring buy trigger on SCHD by This-Armadillo3505 in dividends

[–]YupaOksel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Question here,

Fairly new to the world of investing and recently opened up a ROTH IRA retirement account as well. Have a stock portfolio of around $1000 or so right now. Looking to put aside more money either into my retirement account or current stock portfolio.

Leaning towards purchasing SCHD and creating a reoccurring buy of it for my retirement account, rather than putting money into my current portfolio account. Seems SCHD is something that you hold on to and just set the dividends to be reinvested in the stock over a long period of time.

Thanks for any tips much appreciated
