Hey can you please please make a video on how work visas work in the US? Right from student F1 visa to green card? the in betweens (like whats after 3 failed h1b, opt vs stem opt, L1, O1, i-140 etc etc.), working part time while on student visa etc etc This video is great but a proper detailed no bs video on the visa system would be really helpful! Thanks

[@YudiJ]

Good suggestion, I will work on it. Please know this is a regular live session where people join and ask their questions. Hence it feels out of place but I will work on your roadmap from F1 to Green card type of video

Hey, but can we trade stocks on opt or h1b? (as he said not possible on F1)

[@YudiJ]

Trade - as in day trade or swing trades? Then no. You can buy stocks on f1 and H1b for long term
