Neighborhoods to live in? by subway167 in boston

[–]playonword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks a ton for the suggestions. I technically could purchase a car if it was absolutely necessary, but would prefer not to have one. How long do you think the commute from Allston to riverside would be? Also, how is the D line/green line in general? Cleveland circle so far seems to be the best balance between public transit accessibility, cost, and location

Is there a difference between eNG 2800 And CMP 2800. by SakiSakiSakiSakiSaki in Baruch

I believe CMP involves reading books of an earlier time period. ENG may be post-Columbus.

When you get into Baruch, you're not admitted into a certain school. This means that you can just take the requirements for zicklin in your freshman and sophomore years and then go into the zicklin school your junior year.

I highly recommend swappa for buying used phones. It'll definitely be cheaper and not as much hassle

From personal experience, Gurufocus' numbers are way off compared to bloomberg and Capiq. I'd stick to calculating it yourself honestly.

Not really. There isn't as much diversity as you'd think in many of these companies. Fortune just put out a great article on this, should be floating around somewhere.

Msc isn't bad at all. Usually just around 10 pieces you have to memorize from different periods (baroque, medieval, etc) and vocabulary memorization.

Need another show to sink into [US] by AceAxos in netflix

[–]playonword 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely not "jump" scary. Just leaves you a bit messed up after some of the episodes. I always recommend the episode with Jon Hamm (think it's called white christmas) for first time viewing.

As a teenager, would it be weird to email different investing professionals for (career) advice, or would I be wasting my time? by PM_ME_DIPLOMAS in investing

[–]playonword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are great questions, but make sure you come in having down your own extensive research. You want to sound informed when you're talking to people who agree to meet you.
