How are you guys handling the hopelessness that comes with constant rejection and ghosting? I've been job hunting for seven months and it's been nothing but heartbreak.

I just constantly have to remind myself that it's not about me. It really is this job market and economy. There's nothing I can do about that besides work 10 times harder than usual.

Hang in there and keep persevering! Allow yourself to feel all the emotions that come with the process of finding a new role - it's a lot! But remember to focus on the things you can control. Good luck!

Honestly I really feel for you, it’s awful out there. Please don’t give up (I know it feels hard not to) but eventually some good will come out of it!

Hi all, I am trying to DCA bi-weekly into Vanguard ETFs, (VO, VTI etc). It seems like Fidelity does not support auto buying of non-Fidelity ETFs. So I was wondering which of these options you think is best?

1. Open a Vanguard Invest account
2. Look for Fidelity ETFs that are similar to Vanguard ETFs
3. Use smaller brokerages like SoFi l, Robinhood etc.

I really do not want to manage nor be active. My goal is to log-in like once every 6 months.

Thank you all.

Thing is, I’ve been incredibly frustrated with the firm - I’m buried in work and billing like crazy, but there’s zero transparency on financials and zero communication on bonuses (...)

Anybody have any tips on how to go about the relocation conversation? I’m looking to move out of the city with our main office to a city with a much smaller office.

That said, I’m in a junior role and have been with the company for less than a year so I don’t know if this is a question I should really even ask at this time.
