First off - I am extremely new to this type of professional networking and it seems to me that more than 85% of the posts are about compensation, career etc…. So, give me a shout out if your are 27 years old have a NW of 40K or less and approx 175k TC or less. Just trying to see if I can find folks sailing in the same boat to explore more career options. My wife makes about 200 ish. Life is ok but feels like I’m starting out a little late ( thank you student loans).

Their services cost a pretty penny but they sold me on their package and it seems like they really care about your development in the application process as well. Additionally, could you also share your experience with financing as well (e.g., did you have to pay everything up front, are their installments based on milestones, etc.)?

Appreciate your feedback and insight!

I’m still able to fit resume to 1 page but worried if lots of 3-4 liners are discouraged.
