For those of you that were pregnant and worked in biglaw, did you ever feel like you just couldn’t do the hours and being pregnant at the same time? I find myself unmotivated by work, irritated by my coworkers and planning when to leave at least once a week. My job has a great maternity policy so it makes sense to just ride it out, but as an ambitious woman, I am wondering whether there is something wrong with me and am worried about my mental health...

Starting my job in Sept. Entry level, 80K salary. I would like to hear suggestions on how to properly invest this money given the fact that I still live at home with essentially no expenses. EY doesn't match in your first year, sadly. Realistically, I can put all/alot of this money in the market. What should I do first (max 401k, Roth, etc) and what would you do in my fortunate situation?

What would be the best car for a budget of 15K max, new mom of a baby and looking for a reliable car preferably SUV (can do used cars)

Objective answers only:
Is living in NYC worth the extra cost, when compared to NJ/Hoboken area?

Things to consider:
- I'll work in NYC after my MBA
- I have high fixed expenses (eg. student loans, child support)
- 35 yo, single and want to meet people
- Between city-level income tax and the atrocious CoL (overpriced rents), I estimate that living in NYC will cost $15k-$20k/yr more than NJ

Now, objectively speaking: is it worth it?

Please no "NJ sux" type of answers.
Give me facts and data 😅
