I was talking with a friend who works in a restaurant and they said tips make up a huge portion of their income. For those working in hospitality, how much do tips impact your actual earnings? Would you prefer higher hourly wages with fewer tips, or does the current model work for you? (Please add where you are located, I am in Canada!)

I'm in Canada as well, but used to live in europe where tipping was more uncommon. I am a big fan of everyone being paid fair wages and tipping not being required. Tipping culture is weird.

Need advice. Have some credit card debt that I’ve been working to pay off. Have made progress but want to lower it quickly. We have dual income, with a house (~$300k in equity), 1 kid and 1 on the way. I’ve looked into debt consolidation via HELOC but also have ~$80k in vested equity in my company that I haven’t touched. Get equity refreshes every year. Would it be smarter to cash out $15k-$20k of that to pay debt vs. a HELOC at ~5% given that will still require mthly payments
