Has anyone here pivoted to the mental health industry? Like a therapist? I am going back for my masters part time and was wondering what job opportunities I should look for while I’m in school. I would rather not continue to stay an attorney but have to work and can’t be a full time student for financial reasons.

Seeking feedback on GAP insurance. I had a family member who purchased a car in June or July. They were in an accident last week and it sounds like the car will be declared a total loss.

Car was $35k, $7k down, finance $28k. Gap insurance is through lender, not auto insurer.
