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?

You’re saying there are other forums out there that aren’t wso??
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
blind you mean the sub on Reddit or separate website? Thanks
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

Lmao do you personally find them good?
Funny at the very least
those are humour* gems
Any good ones that aren't in the field of finance?
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
Yeah no point in getting angry at people online, the more time you spend on here upset the less you enjoy life unless forums are your main hobby, then do you

Top notch
Hackernews. I’ve found discourse to be generally civil and well intentioned. Plentiful “deep dive” topics.
Marginal Revolution is often interesting. Though the comment section is hit or miss
YouTube bro, almost anything you want to learn, you can get a good baseline foundation from watching YouTube first
Anything actually interesting?
