How many vacation day do major investment banks give in the UK?
I plan to move to London and work for a major investment bank. How many vacation days should I be expectine to get?
You start at 25 days a year and depending on the organisation, you may accrue more. I would suggest that, if you are interviewing at a few companies, you just call their (and their competitors) HR department and ask them the question. You won’t need to disclose any information, just say you’re looking at applying for a job with them…
Best of luck!

How To Choose The Right Winter Vacation Spot
There are so many people that head out on winter vacations every year to either get away from the cold weather, get away from too many family dinners, or just get away. But with all of the beautiful winter vacation destinations out there, how do you pick the right one for your family to enjoy? It can be an overwhelming task, and one that you shouldn’t take lightly either. Keep in mind that if you pick the wrong winter vacation spot, you will have a disasterous time, yet choose the right one and your family will have the vacation of a lifetime. To help you determine where your next winter vacation should be, let’s go through some simple questions and tips to narrow down your choices:
1. Budget: This is the first area that you need to nail down when starting your search for a winter vacation destination. Know how much you have to spend and what you want to spend on your winter getaway and you can easily narrow down choices by knocking some more expensive ones off of your list. Plus, you’ll be able to determine how far you can travel and what type of vacation rentals and activities you can enjoy.
2. Family Likes & Dislikes: Yet another biggie. You don’t want to book a cruise when your family is afraid of water, so you need to know exactly what their likes and dislikes are when it comes to vacation activities and so forth. If you aren’t sure, it’s ok to have everyone sit down and talk about what they want to do and what they don’t want to do on your winter vacation. This way, you can narrow down your choices again by simply ruling out those areas where there are more dislikes than likes.
3. Activities: When you have a few areas in mind for your winter vacation destinations, check into what activities are around for you to enjoy at that time of year. For example, if you want to go diving, can you? If you want to go to amusement parks, are they open? If you want to go snow skiing, are the slopes good? There are so many factors that go into finding the right winter vacation spot that has the activities that you all want to do so make sure that you do your homework on this part of your winter vacation destination.
4. Accomodations: Now that you’ve narrowed it down a bit more on where you want to go and what you want to do on your winter getaway, let’s chat about accomodations. Resorts and hotels are going to be expensive as all getout during winter vacation peak times, so what do you do? Easy, you check into vacation home rentals in that area before you even consider booking anything else. Vacation home rentals can offer your family so much more that you would never get at a hotel – such as hot tubs, pools, video game consoles, private beaches, and more. Plus, you have your own kitchen to save on money from eating out constantly and you don’t have housekeeping knocking your door in at 7 am.
Once you have used these four simple tips to help you narrow down your winter vacation areas for your family trip, you should easily be able to pick between the few destinations on your list to ensure that youahve the best family winter vacation possible. When you’re ready to check out thousands of great vacation home rentals, ReserveMy Home offers some of the very best ones possible in all areas of the US and some beautiful warm island destinations. Don’t book your winter vacation until you have taken the time to really plan it out and find that perfect spot for you and your family.

How to effectively plan vacation to clearwater beach fla?
I am up to about 1,500$ with hotel and airfare only. Does this sound about right. I want a nice hotel and am flying in from Boston. Would i be able to go somewhere nicer for this price? This is my first time planning a vacation and I want to plan the nicest vacation for my money spent!
Depends what you’re looking for in a vacation. 2 people can go to Cancun for 5-6 days and stay at an All-Inclusive resort (top notch) for about $2000 if you watch for deals. You can go to a similar resort in the caribbean for about $2500-3000 per couple (again, top notch resorts, all-inclusive). I have hundreds of pictures posted on my site, take a look and let me know if you have any questions and I can probably get you more details on what we paid for these trips. The key is to watch for deals and to decide what you want to do (ie Beach, Historic stuff, entertainment (Disney, Clubs, Parties etc).
