I really wish more people would participate in this bowl. I know the industry here is not huge, but it literally feels like there’s 10 people working in advertising in the entire city.

Agree - let’s get this bowl juicy. Confessions, feedback on agencies, fabulous work, networking, who’s hiring, etc.

Fine! I’ll go first. I’m not from here. I’ve lived and worked in many, many cities and two countries and the industry in this town is the most insular of anywhere else I’ve been. This has been a tough town to crack.

I’m not from here either but have worked my career in Mpls and you are absolutely correct. It’s a tough town to break into different agencies and to make connections with people for networking.

Would love to get insight from folks here as I’m not quite sure what to do. I currently have around 14K in student loan debt and enough saved up to pay it off in one fell swoop. What I’m struggling with is whether I should invest that money into the stock market (thinking less risky S&P 500 ETF) and pay off my student loans monthly with the average payment being around 1000 so I can pay it off in about 16-18 months (due to interest being around 5%) or pay it off all in one go?
