Integration is similar to management consulting. Without relevant prior experience or an MBA, probably tough to do.

Valuations is less challenging (but still not easy - accounting skill set is not super transferable). Most in the group have finance backgrounds. Suggest networking with individuals in the group and see if you can score a rotation.

If your background is audit, most natural transition is diligence (FDD) and accounting advisory (CMAAS).

Move to another firm. You'll get a much bigger pay raise and not get sucked back into the work you left behind.

I have never gone to the gym or really worked out, and want to make a change in my life to start exercising. I'm not sure how to handle post-workout showering though.

First time growing out hair and it's coarse/wavy/dry so it takes days for oils to distribute (so oily scalp) due to pushing off washing -- when I do wash, I shampoo only the scalp and will conditioner the rest of my hair. I'm afraid of overwashing, but if I don't wash my hair after I sweat, it will frizz and poof up. Any advice?

I have to travel to my client every week and the client’s office is attached to a very nice hotel that’s $250 per night.

Should I be mindful about how much I’m spending or should I blow up the budget until someone says something?
