I would recommend staying home honestly. No one’s expecting perfect concentration from a new analyst during these times and it looks like you’re saving a lot of money by being at home. Like you said, anything could happen and you don’t have that much in savings so I’d err on the side of caution and not sign a lease
Here's an option: use a small part of your money to create an optimal workspace at your parents house. Redecorate, new desk, chair, paint, blinds/curtains, etc. If it helps, you've saved a big chunk of cash.
I recommend staying home as well. It could be even safer if you think of Covid as a threat. You can definitely save more during this time of the market shifts and I predict a shift will come about in January during the presidential transition. What makes you not able to focus? Also, is this your first role? Working from home itself is an adjustment and I live alone.
I’d rather invest in a pair of ANC headphones and wait till spring to get a better feeling for the actual risk. Greetings from Germany
Stay at home. You’re a new analyst.
Take an afternoon nap.
No one is expecting high concentration at this point.
Based on how much you’ve saved up in just couple of months, continue doing that. These initial savings will help when the time comes.
I have work streams due like every week lol
Maybe try get to the bottom of what is causing concentration issues and be honest about them.
If its anxiety about the job or project, or generally feeling like you're not performing (which is normal in the first few months!) then moving won't help.
If its crammed living area with people bothering you all day then think of moving.
As someone who left home first thing I now see my friends who stayed home having massive amounts saved up and able to buy houses. I still have a few years to go.
I just don’t have a great relationship with my parents and have project anxiety. I need absolute quiet to do work
