Now is the time with remote work + school. Finished my last semester of grad school while working full time. Pretty painful though to work all day then take a quick breather for night classes. You got this though.

No way. I don’t think any agency does that. More of a tech/consulting perk

I did a low residency masters program (not MBA) while working. It's difficult. But doable.

I didn’t do it, but have worked for agencies with tuition reimbursement. Would only work out to covering a couple classes though, so to get through an MBA would take a while. Also had stipulations with repaying it unless you stayed for a certain number of years after complete. You should ask HR for tuition reimbursement info to get details.

I’d like some independent views please, on a financial decision my wife and I are about to make. We’re looking to buy our first/dream home and the property is valued at $1.25m. We have savings of $250k and our HHI is c$350k, with no debt. We will probably exhaust our savings on the deposit and closing costs. A $1m with mortgage at 6% with property taxes is c$8k/month. We net about $14k, we think it’s just about manageable, however keen to get your views please? More context in comment below.

Hello,
I’m a MRI technologist with bachelors in radiologic science. My goal is to become epic analyst. I do have a proficiency in Radiant. However, I am not having much luck with any applications. Almost all the postings require actual certification or build experience. I am thinking that I may have to go back to school. My options are either go for masters or go for another bachelors in IT/computer science. What could be my other options? Thank you.

HNY all! I have multiple rollover and traditional IRAs, as well as a solo 401k.

Cue pandemic joblessness... if married filing separately, would you say it’s a good idea to start a Roth while under the income limit, even in this climate? Any reason not to?
