I'm an 08 accounting grad and have done better than I ever expected, but I fully attribute a lot of that to being in the right place at the right time

I have zero clue on the current state of either program at LSU so I'll keep it generic

- Grades matter but only to an extent
- build a network with your professors and the firms and banks that recruit; they all talk to each other
- participate in any business sponsored competitions where you get the opportunity to present

If you want to go big, especially coming out of lsu, you need to work your arse off for 4-5 years at a big shop in a major metro area outside of LA. Keep networking and soak up as much intel on your clients and their business as you can. If youre a finance major, be prepared to go back and get your mba somewhere that will give you pedigree (not lsu).

It's not on page one, did anyone mention "let's go" yet?

I have a 10 year old Lexus gx with 95k miles and, as much as I love that car, my gut is telling me it's time to get something new.

I'm considering all sorts of options:
F-150 or expedition
4runner or tacoma
New GX550
2023 GX460
X5

Is there anything i need to add to this list? I'm not a fan of driver assistance and monitoring, or all digital instrument clusters, but they seem unavoidable in basically every new model I'm interested in. My heart says to go by a certified 2023 GX and drive it for another 10 years, but even those are $60k for sub 30k mile/3 year warranty vehicles.

Wtf do I do?

Thermal solar is fricking retarded, like offshore wind. Everyone knows this

We need to retitle this thread to "Kafka posts weird shite" so I quit clicking on it

Why in the hell are you going to that HEB if you don't live in the area?

Nothing about this looks like a controlled landing attempt - had to be more damage than just landing gear

The social security wages from your W2 will be taken into account in this calculation so you won't pay over the max social security. Make sense?

Do the W2 contributions apply to the cap first even though my SE earnings were earlier in the year? I want my W2 wages to apply first, since my employer is paying half vs me paying all as self employed

If a 1099 consultant is converted to a full time w-2 employee during the same year, do the employer's FICA contributions toward social security count toward the annual cap before any burden to the earlier portion of the year served as a 1099 contractor? Meaning if I max out SS contributions as a w-2 employee in the second half of the year, I make zero social security contributions for the first half of the year as a contractor?
