Tbh a bit - mostly bc after taxes and such, I’ll still likely have a $50k loan.

Also concerned because I’m kinda banking on getting promoted so I can pocket more money before going to school. Yet, this is going to be a hard year for those. I’m going to have a total of $5k in my savings account otherwise, which won’t cover living expenses 🫠

Got it got it! Yes exactly the tax thing gets me, I’m also anxious about being indebted to the firm for 2 years post mba and that they could literally just go back on their deal or push our start date anytime

It’s a fair concern. Maybe worth considering applying to schools where you can get a big sponsorship.

Tax is also getting deducted, I'm paying hefty emis.
What can I do?
Please advise 🙂
