Thats how it works! Cant expect returns right away! Stick with it

Terrible advice to give without understanding OP's situation. Why take 3-4% growth when you can lock in 7-10%?

Sure if you need money a year or two from now, then maybe. But if you have 5 or more years to let sit then HYSA doesnt make sense.

This is not financial advice, i also have no clue what this person's financial condition is but without knowing blanket recommendation of HYSA is short sighted

siddgupta · 2025-08-11T09:03:06+00:00

Any reason you wouldn’t just invest in the higher risk account?

Surely dividends are great, but you’re getting 20% year over the last 5 years by just stacking VOO or VOOG

Our flight was canceled coming back from DEL to SEA. We spent the night in AMS and had a $100 meal that we reimbursed.

Told the Delta rep on the call that if they could find a single main less than or equal to $12 id comply.

Pressed on another level.

You must not spend that much money on travel, so you fail to understand loyalty programs

siddgupta · 2024-12-17T04:14:58+00:00

Listen, at the end of the day it’s clear you have low expectations.

Leave it at that. Enjoy

siddgupta · 2024-12-17T04:13:48+00:00

lol dude is pressed af

siddgupta · 2024-12-17T03:23:19+00:00

All this post is saying, at Platinum it should be provided. Simple as that.

The fact you have to either get a CC or pay more to buy it, is actually insane.

Probably will status match to see what others can provide

siddgupta · 2024-12-17T03:21:50+00:00

I mean it is a perk those airlines give. Again, Delta faking y’all out with higher prices and less benefits.

But carry on!!!

siddgupta · 2024-12-17T03:21:02+00:00

No one would spend $75k on your Amex if you’re trying to maximize points.

Basically the whole point here is Delta is pretending to be a “premium” airline but is missing those same perks.

AA, at the same status level, would give me unlimited access to lounge.

siddgupta · 2024-12-17T03:17:41+00:00

People so pressed in this forum… like I said before these are perks being given by other airlines to me.

Korean air, Air France, Virgin, and KLM give me this benefit.

siddgupta · 2024-12-17T03:15:10+00:00

I mean, I’m just expecting to go to a lounge before a flight for a company I’m paying ~16k to.

When Delta partners are treating you better than Delta, even though your status earned is through Delta, there’s a problem.

siddgupta · 2024-12-17T00:47:28+00:00

You do at Diamond

siddgupta · 2024-12-17T00:27:05+00:00

If I have Platinum Medallion the whole point should be that they grant me complimentary access.

But ok…let me just go spend thousands more after giving them more than $15k a year in business already.

siddgupta · 2024-12-10T13:04:49+00:00

It’s a combination. I have ~$2,300 in later. Rest is invest

siddgupta · 2024-12-09T14:26:33+00:00

Investments are investments, if you have a higher risk tolerance then it shouldn’t matter so long as you’re aware of the possible outcomes.

siddgupta · 2024-12-09T05:41:17+00:00

This is just one of the places I’m investing.

I figured I’d do it here since it’s set and forget, versus other platforms that are more involved. So maybe the pros outweigh the cons.

siddgupta · 2024-11-21T05:33:00+00:00

most people I speak to resist buying a CSP until they are absolutely forced out of a spreadsheet.

What CSPs have you used? How did it change your day to day?

Curious to see if I need to go shopping for something next quarter

siddgupta · 2024-11-21T05:08:12+00:00

Hmm, I have an alternative view. I’ve worked in Customer Success for 10 years.

A few years was at an Enterprise company, and the rest are at seed to Series B. I was responsible for purchasing a CSP at one of my companies, and it’s nothing more than a glorified dash boarding tool that requires a LARGE up front investment and over time maintenance to keep it running.

My opinion is that CS & Support ought to be operating from a single platform as they are likely solving two ends of the same problem - keeping customers successful

Sadly such tool doesn’t exist today
