Then ask in the bowl that relates to what you want to do.

Somewhere to meditate on why comp is your goal

likefunnysmart

Definitely but you prob already make decent money and the question is what you’re willing to give up and for how much more.

Hence why I don’t respond to PE headhunters lol

If comp is your goal, transition to investment banking for 2-3 years and then to private equity

Curious what’s a fair salary in MA? Was just told that there is likely not going to be a chance for a raise during my upcoming performance review due to my salary already being “above average for the industry” based on my employer’s questionable research. I’ve been with the company 8.5 years & am the only one in my role, which they can’t operate without. I execute tasks from two investment advisors and two financial planners - they make the decisions of what should happen & I make it happen.

My fiancé and I (ages 30 and 31) are about to buy a house. We would put down 10% for a 835k purchase price. Our combined income is $265k. We both have around 7-10k left in emergency funds (each) and combined about 200k for retirement. Our mortgage is $4,500 a month and we split a car payment for $800. Is this an okay financial decision or should we have bought a cheaper house/saved more?
