Organize things as you pack, don’t take a bunch of random boxes and crap that you don’t need. Throw away, then move, not the other way around

I wish i did this last month

Moved 5 times in 7 years. There’s a million obvious checklist things, but one huge time saver for me. Leave one room as “off limits” for movers. This will be all the things you will take on your person, so your valuables or whatever. This saves so much time going back and forth with movers on what they’re packing or taking. “You don’t need to go in this room everything in here I’m taking with me. Literally everything else should be packed.” Saves so much complication.

- Start saving boxes and newspapers to pack things! Try to keep them under the bed and reuse. Same with any blankets that can double as wraps/padding.
- Make a manageable packing schedule so you can accomplish a little each day. If you haven’t moved, packing may feel daunting.
- Start folding/separating your laundry neatly
- Make an Amazon list of things you need for the next apartment
- Mock up a grocery list / pantry restock for your first shop
- Start saving any cash that you carry for movers (if you get them)
- Have a few water bottles ready for moving help too

I am project manager in clinical research industry (CRO). After earning PhD, I gave up my science dream to take a more stable job. After slowly climbing the ladders, I feel like I finally got a seat at the table. Half the days I like the hustle, but now I miss being creative. I want to take more brainstorming, decision making responsibilities but I don’t see that in the career path for PM. Career path usually goes like this- Sr PM, Director, Sr Director, and so on. But all do same work.

What is a simple way to explain to my boyfriend that investing in equity with an expected return of 10% is better than paying off debt that is growing at a rate of 6%. He has student loans and is adamant that he wants to pay all of them off immediately before saving any retirement money. I understand that many individuals use this strategy but I think investing in index funds for the long haul is better from a wealth accumulation perspective, without even factoring in tax implications of 401k
