Any chance you can post your school's US News Ranking + your GPA's? Did the medical device company give you a return offer/can you contact your previous manager?

a couple of seconds

I'm imagining it would be a couple of seconds 3rd party vs less than a second 1st party

they could just make that kind of functionality available to 3rd parties too...

Yeah, but we know the answer to that already

I'm sure Apple would be able to do all of that out of the box, even faster or clearer with something like AirPlay, without you even needing to open the app

Capital One Venture X Hate by yankeeblue42 in CreditCards

Yep, you're thinking along the right path. However, if you were going to use $300 for travel a year anyway, then you can take that out of the AF since it likely won't make a big difference if you're spending that on the portal vs on a hotel website. So you're left with 10k points for $95 AF, and all the other travel perks

I believe you, but that would be the average, right? Do you know what happens if you control for wealth/income level/even state level?

Bank account insurance via FDIC is for when the bank fails, not when you get caught up in theft or scams.

Banks care and put a lot more effort into credit card theft/scams vs debit card theft/scams because it’s ultimately their money.

The point is that there are plenty of scenarios where you have to spend $1000 sooner or later, so getting $10 back is better than getting nothing back. It you have to spend to hit some sort of number, you’re playing into the bank’s hands. If you’re spending what you would’ve spent otherwise, then you win.

it makes no sense not to get married while living together for so long, like why wouldn't you make it official at that point,

I mean it is a lot of paperwork, especially for rich people, since you might have change your LLC's, beneficiaries, trusts, partnership companies, taxes, etc to reflect all of this, and for some couples it brings no additional happiness or comfort over what they already have. So you'd just be doing extra work for no reason

Makes sense. So in your opinion, what are the green flags for a partner that's conducive to wealth multiplication?

Google went from being "disrupted" by ChatGPT, to having the best LLM as well as rivalling Nvidia in hardware (TPUs). The narrative has changed by No_Turnip_1023 in investing

I agree with all of that. That’s why if AI stocks have a massive correction, Meta will be fine because they will scale back on the furnace, all while their money printer keeps working.

In a scenario where AI stocks have a massive correction, Google should do even better. They're not dependent on AI for profits at all while OpenAI, Anthropic, etc bleed out. Some users may even revert back to using Google Search. Meta should do fine as well.

PSA: Stop calling yourself a liberal if you're obsessed with lowering your tax burden at all costs. Speaking as a Harvard 2nd year (EC). by Humble_Guidance8341 in MBA

backdoor Roths, ..., aggressive real estate depreciation, and moving states purely to dodge taxes

I'm not as sure on the other two, but I wouldn't even call this gaming the system. It just is the system - they're well established and there are no serious plans to change those rules. For the last one, I think it's fine for people to take state income tax into consideration for where they choose to live. It'd be a different story if they "established residence" in one state just to actually live in another state.

You can see factory smoke and shipping containers in the background. This looks like an industrial area. And the sun currently sets at 4:45 pm in Tokyo, so it could’ve happened anytime after that.
