I also have to do this kind of work (with financial data), and actually built a product to make it easy. It's currently in closed beta but please send me an email (listed in my profile) if this is truly a frequent pain for you and you&

Get ready for the "calories in calories out" people to come after you. Intermittent fasting also helped me lose around 15 pounds but in around half the time with a 20 hour fasting window.

Money doesn't automatically grow – you need to take risk to get a return. Your checking account takes no risk, so your bank shouldn't really pay much for you to keep your money in your account.

If you really believe it doesn't have "any value at all" then I invite you to sell it short. That's a free $30,000. The nice thing about markets is that you can express your opinion, and that market opinions without corr

Beyond a certain level, salary doesn't matter. There's a base salary and there's upside, so if you create something profitable, you'll get paid significantly more. In finance, bonuses are many multiples of your salary, d

The MacBook Pro Touch Bar taught me to use caps lock as escape. I recently got the new MacBook Pro 16" that has an escape key, but I still use caps lock now.

My company offers exactly this kind of product. We’re currently offering it to institutional investors, but if you’re interested, would love to talk and discuss your use case. My email is my username at alum dot MIT dot edu.

Who cares about emissions, seriously? Imagine millions of humans were being slaughtered instead of animals. I'm glad you're thinking about this, but the big problem with eating meat is not emissions, it's the suffering of mil

Goldman Sachs is more like a collection of companies (divisions) than one company. Further, there is often a Chinese Wall between divisions preventing them from having access to one another to prevent insider trading.

It actually comes down to a few simple algorithms, only one of which I didn't see in college. These kinds of water problems use a "monotonic stack" if I remember correctly. That's the algorithm that I didn't see in

To go against all the negative comments here - I love Turo and use it all the time. The comment regarding money laundering doesn't even make sense - Turo charges for insurance and fees, it would be an expensive way to launder money. Th

I'm doing what the parent comment suggested. The line of credit should be margin - you borrow against your stocks. If you use Fidelity, you can call them and ask them to lower your interest rate, and it can actually get really low.
