Do you honestly feel like you make a difference in the world with your work? I'm not exactly unhappy with my position, but I think I expected it to be more fulfilling in some way.

I used to dislike clinic when I was in residency and Fellowship. Now, in private practice, my clinic is the only place I feel some autonomy and some fulfillment from the decisions patients and I make. Even then, I find myself doing volunteer work every now and then because the expectation from everyone is that I'm doing it for free and the patients show how grateful they are. Feeling validated for the work we do in non monetary ways makes a huge difference in my view.

Would like some thoughts on a 2-br NYC condo my husband and I are considering. $250K HHI (no kids). No loans or debts, both have newish cars fully paid off.

Offer would be for $725K, with 10 percent down. 30yr mortgage @5%. We would need to include closing costs in the mortgage, to keep about $10k liquid. Monthly costs will be about $5k.

This unit is special, very rare (we’ve rented in the area for 10 yrs and know the local market well). Should we go for it?

I went from making $70k the last 7 years to now started a new job a month ago making $130k plus $10k bonus every year, and $60k in RSUs. I have $70k in my 401k and around $50k in savings. Want to get out of the Silicon Valley which has been home my whole life and buy in TX or AZ a ~$400k house. I have about $20k in student loans which my dad has offered to pay (wants to make up for never supporting me) but I’m waiting to see what Biden decides for student loans. Is this feasible? Credit is ~615

I’m sure others have considered this, I really feel burned out on my specific subspecialty. For the most part I do interventional pain management.
