Getting cold now. Time to keep warm.

Was planning on leaving my consulting role for an internal role with the same B4 firm. When I informed my current leadership, they started offering me incentives to stay. I can’t help but think staying would bite me in the end. Any examples of people who accepted a counteroffer from their firm and it worked out well?

I have some mental issues that affect how I do my work. Is it appropriate to bring them up ever, or is it seen as an excuse?

What’s your recommendation if my new 401k does not accept pension rollover? I think the only 2 roll over options left are traditional/Roth IRA, right? If I first roll over the pension to traditional IRA, and then immediately roll over the traditional IRA to my new 401k, will I still trigger the pro rata rule when I do backdoor Roth in the future? I have never contributed to a traditional IRA or done backdoor Roth so far.

Help please! Just seeking calibration / data points. Total household income = $350k. HCOL / high tax area (nyc, so state and city taxes). We are a couple with no kids, no debt. Rent and utilities is 3.2k monthly (combined). Car payment + insurance is 420/month. What sounds like (or if you’re in a similar situation, what is) reasonable avg total monthly spend (incl all expenses even if one-time like travel etc). Or just what’s your total annual spend if you’re in relatively similar situation. 🙏

To those in IBD, what time do y'all wake up? Asking because I just saw some troll-job article abt how the most successful people wake up at 4 am.

Hi all - I'm looking for an elevated/tall bed for my dogs, why suggestions?

What are some tips you all have to build confidence in dogs? I adopted my dog at around 1.5 yo, and the shelter didn’t have much info on his background, but he was so scared when he first came into the shelter they had to muzzle him. I’ve had him now for ~1.5 years and we’ve made so much progress, but still a lot to work on. He barks at children and occasionally men (he’s gotten a lot better on this), and will approach bigger dogs to greet but will snap at them all of a sudden.

Okay, we live in an pet friendly apartment in downtown Chicago. I love dogs while my SO is just getting comfortable with so many of them in our apartment complex. I really really want to get one home but it might just bum him out. Any leads on how to approach this situation? I thought fostering might help.

I'm super duper sick. Like the sickest I've been in years. (Three negative covid tests.) I've been completely laid up in bed for a week. I have two working breed dogs (cattle dog and catahoula leopard). They are going out of their minds with boredom. So I ordered a pheasant toy and pheasant scent online. Crisis averted...
