How have you been navigating your spending cost with inflation rising these last years? For me, I’ve cut back on any subscriptions that I am not using. That has saved me a lot of money and now I can use that money for things I need.

With the rising cost of subscriptions I’ll only pay for them when I need them

Subscriptions absolutely, I had way too many of them, period. Also food. Still like to eat out on occasion, but prefer to have one really nice meal instead of a couple of fast food pickups for basically the same price!

Yea… I didn’t know how much subscription I had until I cancelled them. That’s how a lot of these companies get us. I try to cook at home as much as possible because it’s expensive eating out everyday. I’m glad I have self control.

Subscriptions always seem to get away on me, I've cancelled most of them or gone down to the lowest tier. I've just started thrifting digital media again.

Yea, the sneak up on you when the payment is due and you see how much money you’ve been throwing away. I’m glad you’ve cut down on them. I seen so many people pay 100s of dollars on subscriptions. It’s really crazy but that cool that you are thrifting digital media.

Hi Fishes,

Hi Fishes,

Asking for a friend - Need your suggestion !!

He has 8+ years of experience as an Automation tester.

CCTC: 15.25 fixed (JPMC) + 10% Bonus (Not a part of CTC)

Got an offer from @IBM ISL

Role : Senior Software Engineer

Offered CTC : 22.5 fixed +2.5 JB

Is it a fair amount for 8.5 YOE? Should he negotiate further. As this is his first offer , should he keep trying for better salary?
