I honestly feel my short term memory is just absolute trash. I can still think quickly on my feet with say quick mental math or new info, but retaining non-intuitive info like remembering how to do some admin tasks or even remembering what I did yesterday. Anyone experience anything similar or have tips? I hope this isn’t a long term thing but idk how to train my memory skills

I am purchasing a home and my boyfriend wants in on the deal as a co-owner. It is only me on the mortgage. We are planning on writing up a co-ownership agreement with a 60%/40% split and yes he will be paying 40% of the mortgage, down payment, and property taxes etc. He wants to be on the title as a tenant in common to reflect that %. Is that fair? I just want to make sure I’m protected but I also understand that if he’s paying all this money, he wants some security as well

What’s the realistic salary expectations post-pandemic for an experiential producer with 5+ years of experience and 8+ years of managerial experience (in multiple fields)?? Is everyone seeing a rise in lower paying jobs and starter roles?? Im in a role equivalent to my entry level college role which was almost 8 years ago.

For the married and/engaged ladies, did you have any pre-wedding jitters? I recently got engaged (yay!) and I have felt for a very long time that my partner truly is my soulmate. I don’t have any reservations or hang ups about marrying him, but the sole idea of a lifetime physically makes me anxious. I feel guilty having these feelings when I couldn’t be more certain about the decision to marry him. Can anyone else relate?

I'm seriously contemplating taking a software development boot camp to make a career change.

I noticed the universities are a bit more expensive but is it worth the price to have a university on your resume or does it not really matter?
