I have 9 YOE in Portfolio and Business Valuation / Financial Advisory. Not sure how much growth is there in my company. Somehow it is getting increasingly difficult to switch to another firm (since most roles are in bigger cities and I own a home in mine). And the political atmosphere keeps worsening in my company!

Looking for advice/opinions regarding a potential career switch in Finance.. I am evaluating my options! I have a Masters in Finance and an undergrad in Computer Science engineering.

Are there any internal options for a cross-department move? Sometimes that change in team, or department, is big. As for external roles, you might consider Fintech, boutique firms, or advisory, really just depends on what you have available in your location.

How do you deal with the following - 1) lack of general organization in life, note taking, keeping track of your relationships and 2) attention to detail. These 2 things have been bothering me a lot. We all are smart as hell but silly mistakes such as spelling mistakes, broader checks to be done on the deck is killing me. Also I feel the lack of organization in personal life blows into professional as well. If you are a consultant how do u deal with it ?

So… 3.5 year relationship came crashing in Jan due to covid depression, work burn out, lockdown etc. We have stayed in contact and recently he has come around to apologizing and considering getting back together. However he also revealed he started seeing someone casually 4 weeks ago and technically is cheating on her by meeting me for coffee and to discuss this. I’m upset that he’s dating others but shouldn’t be right? I mean, I did the same. Still hurts though. And I told him to sort that out
