spending extra for more space/a more comfortable living environment? yes, absolutely

maybe if you no longer need to live near work, you can find a place you love a little further out on the same budget

congrats btw 💗

Not necessarily more money, but maybe more space in a another location for the same price?! As long as it is easy to commute (to me) it made all difference being able to take more than ten steps at home 😅😂

Yes

I have an associate's degree in graphic design and work designing wedding stationery. I've been at my company since 2016, and am now a design consultant - speaking to customers directly and creating custom artwork and designs for them. I know I'm underpaid (50k/year in the SF Bay Area) but I thought the benefits and stability were worth it. I'm now severely burnt out (most of my team is) and not sure which way to go, or how to grow. Any tips/advice?

Thanks!
