i currently work in finance strategy transformation under the cfo group.. we do a lot of thinking about how to make the cfo group more tech savy as well as other levers to be more efficient.. im thinking about my long term career and the 2 easy options i see are either corporate strategy or try to learn as much as i can about tech and position myself as a SME in the finance tech strategy space.... wondering if anyone has previously held a similar role and what their exit was

I think if you work in one of these groups, try to learn some project management skills like how to raise JIRAs and it should help you down the line.

Also JQL helps for searching JIRA

If you do like corporate strategy and finance, IR might suit what you are looking for.

I’m maxing out my 401K, traditional IRA and HSA this year and paying for some house improvements.

I was focused on paying off huge chunks of my mortgage and managed to whittle it down to $75K left. Would you suggest I go ahead and pay that off this year?
