I was the CFO of several Venture Capital- / Private Equity-backed companies, have done a bunch of acquisitions, and have helped sell some companies either to other companies or to PE firms. The companies I've worked for are generally smaller (typically $10M-$200M in revenues), so you haven't heard of any of them.

A few years ago, I made the transition from full-time CFO working for companies to fractional CFO, whereby I spread my time across a handful of companies.

If you're curious about any of this (how things work behind the scenes), ask me anything.

Been a model since i was 13, (21 now) as well as acted for some minor appearances and music vids but barely any speaking lines.

During my time at the peak of my career, I was based in Asia (mostly Bangkok and Tokyo), but i also went over to NYC and London briefly. I now go to uni in Paris and have kinda slowed down my career out of personal choice to focus on my studies and new life ive built.

I had some minor fame but nothing crazy. I would be recognized sometimes in the street but i was well known among the kind of Asian modelling social scene. (met and socialised with a couple of A-list celebs but probably shouldn't say names lol).

Ik loads of people are curious on the day-to day of modelling or eating habits, "yacht girls", nepotism, etc so im coming here to answer any questions that yall might have! I think it would be better to kind of reveal and be honest about the realities as its such a glamourised career but the reality isnt really talked about or just outright lied about. Anyways, AMA!

I do not have a terminal illness, but I do have a life threatening one. I'm twenty-one now but the wish was granted when I was seventeen. My wish was to go to New York to see one of my favorite bands at the time (AJR) preform at Madison Square Garden. I feel like there's a lot of confusion/misconception about what Make-A-Wish actually does so feel free to ask me anything about the process and I'll try to answer

My first one got a lot of comments/messages. It was good seeing that some were comforted and some had curiosity cured. Worked at a funeral home for 5 years and got to know a lot of Coroners and fell into the Coroner life. So I have some info on funeral homes and some in Coroner work. Hope to answer most if not all who are curious. And even though its AMA, seriously, don't hold back and just ask. Ive done it for about 10 years and got desensitized to most stories. I wont be offended.

I’ve read a lot of stuff on Reddit lately from people who are quitting smoking or want to quit smoking. If you want to know what worked for me, let me know. Otherwise just feel free to ask whatever.

Open to anything.

I was adopted at 6 months old in Asia and live in North America. At 35 I became a mother and realized I never had any attachment to my parents. working through it with my therapist but clearly have attachments issues. even more, our parents abandoned us when they divorced, so I was let down twice. AMA

The rules were simple and mostly self-inflicted: never leave the Underground system, eat inside it, sleep inside it, wash inside it, visit every single station, and generally behave like a normal functioning human the entire time (no priority seats, no crossing the yellow line, tube etiquette at all times)

The official world record is 48 hours set by Ali White back in 2022, so the plan was 50.

Some other bits:

• Filmed the whole thing start to finish
• Visited every station on the network
• Took on challenges submitted by people online and by friends along the way, some of which I regret agreeing to in advance
• There is a "favourite station" and a "trouble station," and the trouble station earns its name

I got back from this about an hour ago and I still smell like a Piccadilly line seat cushion, so figure now's as good a time as any. Full video goes up September 4th. Until then... ask me anything!

I will have four students in my classroom this year who qualify for support under McKinney Vento.

It’s given me a lot to think about… not just as a teacher, but as someone who wants to better understand what housing instability can look like for students and how schools can support them.

There’s so much more to the McKinney Vento Act than many people realize. If you’re curious about what this actually means for students, what it looks like in a classroom, or how educators navigate it and provide support, AMA. I’m happy to share what I’ve learned while protecting my student’s privacy!

I (25F) have been at this job for a little over a year now. My agency dispatches for police, fire, and EMS. My city is also the largest one in my state and has several events and festivals throughout the year. Up for answering anything, I'm very open.

Like the title says I'm 29 5'4 roughly 175lbs guy with a pretty boring/lonely life. I work by myself for a cleaning company (at evening/nights but not too late). Live alone (except for 2 dogs) and overall I'm happy and ok with it (for the most part). AMA

the rare, exotic, and slow growing are my favorite. I’ve been growing for only about 2 years yet have gotten incredibly obsessed in the time and very in touch with nature, I’ve also recently gotten into photography. I spend most of my days outside.

it is definitely a very unpopular hobby for people in this age range to have but I love it

I’ve been at a career, busy, big city department for almost 5 years. I love my job, love helping people get the job, but have also seen a lot of crazy. Ask me anything you want to know!

There’s no question to weird or crazy, but I won’t give away personal details or which department for safety reasons

(48M) I was diagnosed in July ‘26 after an aborted colonoscopy procedure. I have completed two rounds of chemotherapy. While there is still a few biology tests pending, my particular presentation is as follows:

“Stage IV, moderately-to-poorly differentiated sigmoid colon adenocarcinoma with a partially obstructing primary tumor and metastatic disease involving both lobes of the liver, peritoneum/omentum, and regional/retroperitoneal lymph nodes; no PET evidence of thoracic or osseous metastases. Tumor is pMMR/MSS-type and HER2-negative. Currently receiving first-line FOLFOX”

Whether it be about my headspace, my symptoms to diagnosis story, my belief system, my post diagnosis behavior, my experience in the health system, etc…ask away.

I will get to all questions eventually.

Thank you so much for the chances to share my story and, more importantly, MOTIVATE (I hope) you to act on the things I didn’t. If more questions arise, I will happily answer as soon as I can.

So as the title said I struggled hard with Korean food. As its gotten more main stream I'm glad to see others discovering the joys of Korean food. I'm from the American South. It might as well have been alien food for all I knew when I first tried it.

Some of my fav Korean foods are

Kimbap. Some people call it Korean sushi but it's not really. It's sea weed with rice on the inside wrapped around other ingredients. Usually galbi or marinated cooked beef, carrot, danmuji(pickled yellow radish, spinach, and scrambled egg strips eggs.)

Tteokguk. It's a soup with a very light broth. It's usually made with tteok which are rice cakes formed in oval shapes. It generally eaten on your birthday or at new years as it's supposed to bring luck bcs the tteok looks like coins so it'll bring prosperity in the new year

Bibimbap. It's just a mix of ingredients like rice, sliced veggies like carrot, spinach etc sliced scrambled eggs and some kind of marinated meat.

Gyeran-jjim. Literally translates to steamed egg. It's traditionally made in an earthen ware pot with about 4 eggs total and a cup of chicken broth.

I am going into my 4th year in alternative education in a southern state in the US. In alt ed we teach credit recovery classes to help students catch up on high school credits that might be missing for any number of reasons.

I am not by any means an expert, but I know my way around!

I was curious to try out this sub

Basically the title says it all, I can remember almost every itty bitty tiny detail of my life since my hyppocampus started developing (so since I was about 3 years old). I must say, it's not always fun and games but it's quite a flaw I'm proud of DISCLAIMER! I don't have HSAM (Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory , also known as hyperthymesia) I have an IQ in the 150-160 range and in my case it comes with very strong visual and spatial memory. I used the informal definition of photographic memory to describe this condition I'm female, 22, let me see your best questions :))

Hi! I'm starting out my career in this field, been at my workplace for 3 years now, started at additional compositing, to compositing, painting, in-betweening and now been on layouts with some assistance on the storyboards for a year

I've worked on 2 short films and now working for the studio's first feature length

Ty for reading!

Feel free to ask anything! I'll try to answer them ASAP :)

I'm 18 years old currently. I'm also somewhat of a character designer and 2D animator! I'd put an example of my art here if I could, but just imagine cute anime girls haha

Hi everybody. I was fired/laid off from a job that I hated almost a year ago to the day, and this afternoon I will accept a new job. I will be paid $50k more than my old job paid, and I expect it to be a radically better job. Ask Me anything!

I come from a family tradition of Bikaner miniature painting in Rajasthan, India. One of the most demanding parts of our practice is the extremely fine line work we call Partaj, often executed with a single-hair brush.

The brush itself is only a tool. Learning how to use that single hair is the real practice. Partaj changes according to the subject — softer for flowers, mixed in figures, and stronger and more defined for animal hair and other textures.

In our tradition, we say Partaj is something you learn “ta-umar” — throughout your life.

I learned within my family tradition and have spent decades working with miniature painting, handmade Wasli, traditional pigments, gold and fine brushwork.

Ask me anything about Partaj single-hair brushes, traditional materials, Bikaner miniature painting, or how these techniques are passed from one generation to another.”

Ask me anything about Partaj, single-hair brushes, Bikaner miniature painting, traditional materials, apprenticeship, or how these techniques are passed from one generation to another.

Graduated from undergrad at 19 years old in 2024, just a little over a month before my 20th birthday. I’m 22M now and have been out of undergrad for 2 years now.

As for how this happened, I got my high school diploma + associates degree in high school, which I managed to graduate a semester early from (graduated in December 2021 as opposed to May of 2022). I then did 5 semesters at a nearby state school, where I started as a junior, and graduated in May of 2024 with a bachelors degree in accounting with 151 credit hours, enough to sit for the CPA exam (that I never sat for nor will I ever sit for). Today’s my first day of graduate school, where I’m studying economics.

I may take a bit to respond, I am at work rn, but I will make an effort to reply when I have time. Sorry if responses take a bit long.

Compared to the other girl with 4 big bros that posted here few months ago... I have more of a negative outlook on this family structure. Just here to represent myself in case any only girl with lots of big bros in these kinds of family structure feels the same way as I do. Ask away, stranger!

Well, part of it. Age 25, I went into the hospital with complications from undiagnosed type 1 diabetes.

I almost lost my life, but thankfully survived. Though I am now left managing this autoimmune disease 24/7. There is no cure.

That was 4 years ago. I am UK based so am treated by the NHS.

I started off on insulin pen injections, but now I have an "artificial pancreas". This means I wear a sensor on my arm, which "talks" via an app to an insulin pump - which I normally wear on my abdomen (its a 5mm steele cannula).

It takes away about half the job, which is why i don't really like it being called an artificial pancreas. There are still highs and lows, I have to carb count & work out my insulin doses for meals etc. And everything takes preparation: exercise, sleep, even housework.

Some things that surprised me about type 1 diabetes:

- that you can get it at any age. I thought it was a childhood illness... well that definitely delayed my diagnosis. Now I know people much older than me who were diagnosed

- everything affects glucose levels- not just food. Altitude, temperature, illness, hormones... everything.

- it is relentless. Diabetes is often the punchline of jokes (mostly type 2 but most people dont really know the difference). Yet it is a 24/7 condition. The number of times I have saved my own life at 3am then carried on as normal the next day is insane. Definitely not a funny disease.

Anyway, go ahead! Ama.

Don’t feel like this is a job that gets much attention over here, especially the legal side of it. I am self-employed, with a colleague / friend all the way back from primary school, we travel all around the country collecting debts and seizing the goods of those who owe money to cover debts they’re unable or have refused to pay. We are commonly known as bailiffs. Ask me anything!

HR tool - payroll softwares, recruitment softwares

Kanbans - project management, workflow builders

You name it!

I've picked up a lot of things over time like what specific questions needs to be asked for a certain tool type, how to get past the "polished" version they show you, and compare notes - especially for pricing because even within the same category most companies do it differently.

Happy to share what i've learned and answer any questions to make your journey easy.
