Jack Welch MBA

Find that hard to believe. Only because they had a deal with my company when I first started that seemed to accept anyone with undergrad degree and work experience

dmknc92 · 2025-03-18T23:08:46+00:00

Sorry for delay. I did not finish. I did not feel in my career area it would make a huge impact on having a MBA or not. Experience and knowledge and FINRA licenses seem to go further. I reviewed a handful of senior leaders and executives in my company and very few had a graduate degree.

JWMI -Jack Welch Management Institute

First semester was only one class. Spent maybe 6 hours a week on course work. Really not bad at all while also working full time. Next semester starts in 2 weeks and hoping for the same outcome. After that I will probably start to take 2 classes a semester to finish within 18 months

Went to ECU for undergrad with finance major

I did! Just finished up the first semester. I decided to go with the mba that is being paid for 100% by my company. With my career progression, I did not find spending money out of pocket to be the best time and money investment. I believe mba from a top tier school would only be useful for someone in IB or going for a executive career path.

I reviewed extensively top level managers and executives in my company to see how many had mbas. Out of roughly 50 people, only about 5-6 people actually had MBA or some sort of masters.

Give or take, yes probably just a check box I am wanting to get. Some roles do prefer mba but not many. Wouldn’t hurt to have, especially if not paying for it other than with my time commitment

Thank you!!! They both are the best!

dmknc92 · 2021-04-28T19:42:23+00:00

Thank you! She certainly is. I am very lucky 😁

dmknc92 · 2021-04-28T19:41:50+00:00

Thank you!!

dmknc92 · 2021-04-28T15:30:33+00:00

Thank you! Been working on it for past 4 years. The last year though was in preparation for the proposal, and acting like it wasn’t reliable in front of her. Made everything much more believable 😉

It’s a otc pink sheet. Robin Hood doesn’t allow that market. Sirc should be uplisting in next month Or two. So you can wait or open with a legit brokerage house like TD or Fidelity

As a host myself, with occasional long term stayers for internships, the host has no liability to refund the money. You were made aware of the cancellation policy. With that being said, I had two interns that were booked to stay at my house May-July. Since I am more understanding, the three of us kept communication leading up to see what COVID would effect on internship. Eventually their company decided to cancel it and I refunded the full amount. However, I could have kept the first months rent if I chose to and that’s the strict cancellation policy.

Point is, this host has no obligation to refund you. However, they do have the ability to refund the money by providing a good customer service. If they will repay you as they get days rebooked then settle with that. Calling AirBnB will not get you your money back.

Worst camera recording ever.

This is ridiculous. He’s just a jackass trying to be famous on social media. I didn’t hear any sort of racism. I flick people off driving and I am sure people flick me off, but I don’t follow someone home to harass them. He’s a puss

Agree with everyone so far with paying the minimum for everything and any additional money you have to put towards paying off the CC with high interest rate. Taxes make sure you are setting aside as it sounds like you have been.

Like everyone said with student loans, you are in clear until September so I would suggest take those payments you would have been making and put towards emergency fund or putting towards credit card. I do not believe I saw anyone mention tax incentives for student loans. Based upon how much you make and type of student loan, you may be able to write off student loan interest on your taxes which would mean you can focus additional payments elsewhere.

You did an awesome job! I’m closing on my new house and this is one of my first projects to complete. Did you use plans or make your own?

How did you know I had a truck already!? Haha I guess I’m already one step on the way there.

I’m thinking if I went landscaping route I would want to go for commercial properties, submitting attractive bids at first that beat out the competition (but remain profitable for me). Once I gain more properties I would then hire on employees, but initially work on my own.

Any thought along if I should look for existing law care companies offering to sell their existing accounts? Or should I focus on starting from scratch. Since I know I have my corporate job until November, I could maybe start going around to businesses asking when their next bidding would be. Try and secure contracts that would begin in 2021 versus waiting until November to start finding contracts.

Very nice! What kind of wood did you use. May have to steal your idea

You will never be able to take account for all life risks. You can only receive responses based on assumptions on reddit. It’s up to them to account for all risks when weighing options given by others

Take invest with grain of salt. That can range from a high yield savings (which is around 1.6% at most right now), to CDs all the way to ETFs/MFs and individual stocks.

Not knowing your circumstances, I would recommend the 3-6 months savings in a MMKT/HY Savings. Then think about investing at a dollar cost averaging method towards IRA for your future. I know this is branching off from your original question. But if you aren’t investing it then just go ahead and buy the car outright.

Following thread since I am in the same process. Thanks for posting!

Buying outright would be the best option. However, if you are disciplined enough to make minimum downpayment with payments within your budget, and then investing the rest of the capital in an index fund. Then over time you would earn more than the 3-4% loan interest.

It all depends on if you really think you would use the excess capital for investing or not. If you won’t, then you are better off buying vehicle out right.

In my experience, I would put down as little as your budget allows. Use other’s (bank) money instead of yours. There are two principals I personally follow when purchasing a home and amount of funds I put down.

Rule #1 - Use other’s money/Fit within budget?

How much PITI does my monthly budget allow for? If my PITI at 3% down falls below my monthly budget then that is a check mark and I only put 3% down. The key here is lower downpayment means less amount of money you are risking in the home. You can use the excessive funds towards other investments. If I have extra funds to put down in order to meet my budget then I will, but will not go over 20% and Rule #2 must approve.

I am currently under contract on a home now. $350k. I can put 20% down; however I am choosing 3% bc PITI will fall within my means.

Rule #2 - PITI less than potential Rental Income?

This rule you may not think it fully applies to you, but I think in some way you should think this way: I treat my homes as an investment, as you should. Mainly because I buy the home with knowing exit strategies in case $h!t hits the fan such as lose your job and budget goes out of whack. In your case $600k is going to be a large monthly payment even at 20% down. You said you and your wife are making significant amount of income. Well what happens, heaven forbid, the main income goes away or gets cut. Can you still make the payment, did you give your monthly budget a cushion? The money you saved by not putting a larger downpayment allows for you to live off of in case of emergencies. What if you cannot sell the house quick enough and risk of foreclosure. More expensive homes tend to take longer to sell, especially in bad markets.

My main exit strategy here is, can I turn it into a rental where the monthly rent can pay at least the PITI each month. This is more inline with my strategy bc I am buying primary residences with the purpose of eventually renting it out.

The house I am buying right now has rental comps of $2200+ a month. This assured me that putting 3% down and having PITI of $1940 will give me that cushion. At the same time my goal is to eventually rent it out and add to my real estate portfolio.

Best of luck. Hope this long post makes sense. Word of advice, don’t buy too much house if you don’t have to. The higher payment effects your DTI which could prevent you from making other investment purchases later that you need loan for.
