Hi everyone, I hope you are doing well? I wondered if someone here may be able to help… I am very anxious about the impact on my career if I decide to start a family. Is anyone here able to advise on what helps them if they have been through this situation?

If you’re in a cutthroat, high-pressure firm, taking time off will slow your career down. That’s just the reality in some places. The key is picking the right company or being okay with stepping back and re-entering later. Some women go into corporate finance or wealth management for more flexibility. It’s all about knowing what you want long-term and planning for it.

Will be in the market for a car in a month or so - narrowed down to Mazda CX 50 Turbo but the BMW X3 is only around $5k more compared to the Mazda Turbo trim I liked. Torn between these 2, would really appreciate any advice/insight in making this decision in regards to longterm ownership, rate of depreciation and maintenance.
