What other sites and forums do you like to browse for learning?

I’ve found wso to be greatly helpful for recruiting and learning about finance. But I’m wondering what other sites / forums do you guys browse for either advice, helpful insights or general learning? 

 

Forums -

Reddit: r/financialcareers - not as much of a “high finance” focus but has decent content. Blind is heavy tech focus but can check it out. Fishbowl has some finance content too but leans on the tech side too.

 

Do keep in mind that the subreddit has some shocking advice about resumes. Filled with undergrads

 

there can be good info on fishbowl and blind but good god it's nothing but strivers who need to develop a real personality and some hobbies outside of worrying about 'TC', grad school, if they are keeping up with the joneses, etc.

It's sick most of the people on those boards are in the top 1-5% of domestic income/wealth, top .1% of global income/wealth, and yet half of them still feel like shit because they have nothing else going on to value themselves by

 

I just watch youtube and netflix all day man. Forums are just a cesspool with seemingly sound advice with lots of banana votes as validation of that advice, but then you try to follow said advice and it doesn't work, don't get angry at the people on the internet trying to help
