TLDR: Getting over your ex of 2.5 years ghosting you after they said they wanted to reconnect.

I was dating someone for about 2.5 years and then we broke up because of COVID and the long distance was making it too difficult to continue. The break up must’ve been like a 4-5 minute FaceTime because I was very distraught. After we broke up, she started seeing someone else but I was heartbroken and it’s taken me over a year to really get over everything and process those feelings. (Cont.)

Hi all - amateur investor here who somehow started getting in the market right as things took off. I didn’t pay rent this year due coming back home after COVID so had a lot of extra $ to invest. Currently maxing my 401k, Roth IRA, and ESPP. Not maxing HSA but contributing $3k, so close.
After this, I have a $500 monthly auto investment into a vanguard fund & have been intermittently buying stocks on Robinhood.
What else should I do with any extra cash I have?

Thoughts on the Bill Michael resignation email we got? I’ve heard the same commentary and worse from my bosses about covid being ‘fake’ or ‘ over exaggerated’ and have been told by my bosses to expect working longer hours without hanging time to eat — but it seems it doesn’t matter unless unless there’s an article written about it that the media puts out.... one thing to enforce our values on only those getting caught in the spotlight for it.

I’m a 30yo college grad who spent most of my 8 years in nyc in the food industry. It was comfortable and I liked it. But after being on unemployment during covid and making more than I ever had as a barista, I can’t go back to food. Seeing what that extra $600 a week did for my life and stress has changed me and I want to make that much money all the time.

Does anyone else have experience transitioning from the food industry to an office job at an older age?
