I know this is information PE firms try to keep private. But for personal reasons, I am very interested in finding out how much a private equity firm is worth. Any information is helpful--assets, capital raised/left to deploy, etc.

I have tried Pitchbook, company press releases, general internet digging, and yielded nothing. Your help would be greatly appreciated :)

Full disclosure, I don't know much about business. You may need to speak to me like I'm 5 here.

But I am trying to find out how much a private equity firm is worth. I have tried scanning LinkedIn, Pitchbook, and business news articles but found nothing. Any suggestions on where to search next?

Hi! Super random question: is it common for people to hang up wind chimes in their balconies or backyards?

Context: I am sitting on my porch right now during a thunderstorm and noticed I really enjoy the sound of wind chimes because it reminds me of home. I just moved back to the US after living in Europe for a little while.

But I've just realized I can't remember seeing any wind chimes when I was living/traveling in Europe. That doesn't mean they weren't there--they could be inconspicuous enough that I just never perceived them. But I'm mainly curious if this is a "US thing". They are very common here. Just about everybody's grandma's house has got wind chimes outside.

I've gone on a little deep dive and apparently European immigrants brought the tradition of outdoor wind chimes to the US, but the internet was unclear whether this lives on at its origin. I do know many countries in Asia use wind chimes as well, but it seems those are aesthetically and symbolically pretty distinct from Western chimes.

Would love to learn more. Thank you for indulging my weird rabbit hole I've gone down.

Hi all! I am sadly moving from Madrid next week, and I have some extra bedding such as pillows, blankets, heated blankets, etc. I would like to donate them so they don’t go to waste and am looking for somewhere to take them. They’re in great condition I just don’t have space to take them home. Does anyone have any suggestions? I live around Opera. Saw a post like this from 2020, but with the pandemic, I thought some things may have changed. Thank you! :)
