How do you rebuild your cash after a large expense? We recently did a necessary renovation to part of our home, and even though we tried to be economical, it was still a big expense.

Going through interviews and struggling a lot with social anxiety and feeling awkward. In final rounds at a company where the next interview will be strongly focused on understanding personality and fit. Doing great on content but really can’t connect with people, especially over Zoom.

It took WFH to realize that consulting is not fulfilling at all and the only thing that made it feel fulfilling and important was the points and being able to interact with the client in person. Wow.

I have about $100K saved in cash to use in business school. Given that travel is out of the question, I won’t be moving for a few months, and my firm is paying me a stipend, I have a $40K buffer now. What would YOU do - invest it responsibility or keep in cash? I wouldn’t need it for another year, if I need it at all. No judgment please; just laying out the context.
