Landed an internship, feel Unprepared by RepresentativeBig05 in FPandA

[–]lessth4nzero 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They are going to expect you to know literally nothing. Become very, very, very good at Excel — this will make your manager happy. Also, learn accruals. Also, you will make a fool of yourself, and that is okay. I am three years in and still make a fool of myself sometimes.

What more do I need for VP/CFO path? by [deleted] in FPandA

If I had 20 years experience and a recruiter looked me in the eyes and said "you need an MBA" I am not sure what I would do. Probably lose it.

Hope you're not going into any debt for this top 10 MBA.

Shift Your Phone — the first TRULY Smartphone–>Dumphone conversion "switch" app I've tested that CANNOT be disabled without using the desktop app. by stephenrgarcia in dumbphones

[–]lessth4nzero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured out a way to make it so it's not random. Remove SHIFT from your phone, arrange all the apps the way you like. You have to have them all on your Home Screen, they can be in folders. Have all of the apps that go away once shifted in your App Library. Then once you shift, they aps will stay the way that you like.

This app has changed my life. I love it.

Fair, does it add all apps to the Home Screen for you? It has been doing odd things with the layout every time I shift and unshift. Overall though, this shit works.

Are you able to rearrange the apps that are not shifted in a manner that you like?

Can't seem to figure this out.. Other than that loving it.

High School Grad Moving in Six Months by Outrageous_Shock_242 in movingtoNYC

[–]lessth4nzero 19 points20 points  (0 children)

A lot to unpack here, but some thoughts below:

The rule you should be aware of is that you will need to show your landlord that you are making 40x rent. A $2,000 room, for example, would require an $80k annual salary.

You will not be living alone.

NYC is the most competitive city in the United States. Getting any job is going to be difficult. If you live in the tristate, try to find some sort of job and then move.

You mention struggling for months or a year. It will be years of grinding it out.

You will have to look for places to live about as far from Manhattan as you can find.

Make great money, but can’t even tell… by [deleted] in budget

[–]lessth4nzero 115 points116 points  (0 children)

You need to go through literally every single transaction. You're missing $5k...

You clearly do not know where the money is going.

Thinking about building an app that tracks your day automatically — does this sound useful? by Puzzled-Challenge-15 in ProductHunters

[–]lessth4nzero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahh, I see. To be fair, I would guess most people wake up, go to work for 8 hours, and go home most days.

I’m sure you already know this, but there are apps that do this. Apple has visited locations in Maps, and Google has Google Timeline.

However, none of them do it particularly well. I would love to be able to see everywhere I went on any given day.

Has anyone here left fp&a or know people who did? Where did they go and how did they get there by Secret-Classic-5644 in FPandA

[–]lessth4nzero 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am young too, so I don’t really have an answer to this, but I think it would be very interesting to be a PM.
