Thank you, Tam and Dee! I really appreciate the life and career gems you ladies share. Is there a video about closed-end funds (CEFs)? I do not understand it and don't know if it is worth looking into. Again, thank you, ladies!

When you mention infrastructure, I'm assuming CCNA certification, Rack and Stack servers, firewall configuration etc etc. Thank you for all the information. I def will look into Linux again. Also looking forward to the content on this channel and the website.
