Second year considering leaving NY biglaw for a few public interest options. Partly for mental health reasons. Making market, and I would potentially leave for a starting position offering around / a bit over $80k. Holding out currently to see what else arises. Fortunately I don’t have much debt, and that’s enough to cover my basic rent/living expenses, but not by much. Has anyone made a jump like that before? How did you manage financially if so? Living in this city ain’t cheap🙃

Hi 🐠, need your help/suggestions. We moved into our new townhouse 4 months ago and I’ve been noticing a car parked outside with 3-4 (young folks) people sitting in it for past 3-4 weeks. Today they took it to another level when someone from that group was peeing right in front of my backyard. When I was about to talk to them they left in a hurry. What should be doing? I’m first time homeowner so want to make sure I’m not doing anything wrong

One item borrowers shopping for mortgages get too caught up in is rate. Most borrowers don’t know how to read a loan estimate and get taken advantage all the time.

If you don’t know or understand discount points feel free to shoot me a message and I can help you review estimate and see if can beat
