Currently booking summer travel for the family, and it hit me… my parents would’ve never been able to afford vacations like this growing up. It made me wonder: when was the moment you realized, ‘Wow… I finally made it’?

I’m in Denver pulling $95k base, and I’m starting to think I made a massive mistake by choosing work-life balance over a front-office grind. I love leaving the office by 6:00 PM, but seeing the first-year IB guys pulling down six-figure bonuses is demoralizing. Is the only way to break the $150k barrier before turning 30 to move into a revenue-generating role?

I am 63 years old and have 30 years of Collections management experience working in banks . I currently have an individual contributor role job making $110,000 per year . Our office is only 5 people. I report to the owner . I've been here 3 years. I recently received a job offer of $110,000 for a Collections Manager for a Debt Collection law firm. They have a 401K plan but no match. My current job is very low stress , casual dress, and a very easy job. Is this new job worth the move ?

I’m curious—what evidence are you seeing that men are experiencing reverse discrimination? In financial services, it still seems like most senior leadership positions are held by men. I’m at a conference and overheard a conversation at the next table.

Hi Everyone, I have been having trouble finding a new job (10 months and counting) as a Project Manager despite my extensive experience in the financial industry, I don't want to speculate on the reasons, but now I'm getting to the point of applying for jobs at Walmart or Costco so I can pay my bills more easily, I'm fine with this because work is work but I can't help but think that there may be other options for work that I'm just not considering, or not know about. Any thoughts? Thanks
