Definitely keep the M3. Take it from a guy who got rid of his M3 years ago. No car has ever compared.

Troll - If you can't afford a girl and an M3 how do you expect to have an M3 and still be a stunner while single? So you plan on running around broke but being able to say that you drive an M3? Don't you still need some pocket change to take girls out and court them?

Hello fishes.
I'm a fresher and I recently joined one of the big4 as a senior analyst.
I am given sap as my competency, but honestly I'm not finding it interesting. I was hoping to shift to data analytics(python, sql, etl, powerbi, advanced excel... Working with these techs).
I have knowledge in python and sql. I also have some development skills, reactjs and stuff(not relevant to data analytics).
Should I increase my skill set before starting to apply to other firms?
