For those ex-Deloitte people who got laid off due to covid in June, how are you doing now? I want to send love and hope here as I know being laid off is hard. But this hardship can lead to new opportunities. Fortunately, I have been getting offers since November and the new job is way better than my Deloitte one. Let me know if I can help : )

I kind of like the idea. I would probably not take a month or two or three off on my own accord...but if it were forced on me it could do wonders for my mental health. Would destroy me financially though

If I see one more article on how millennials are ruining the economy or housing market by not buying enough homes or selling enough homes I'm going to scream. We were saving for 3 years before Covid and had to use a solid chunk to take care of ourselves and our families during quarantine. Now that we're ready to save again inflation and COL are at an all-time high and we're headed into a recession. And somehow this is my fault for what...not being a boomer? Bffr.

Good evening all,
With my partner we are considering making a move to the countryside of Switzerland, with a gorgeous RE project offering incredible views on immaculate mountains and lake. However, it is far away, and will require 1h+ train/car commute vs. 10 min biking right now. We are scared it will bite us back at some point, although COVID helped w/ remote working being a new norm. The project will be done 2024, so I hope to have a more relax job by then. Any similar experience to share?
