Advertising. Had to take a step down though and it was a good thing. I’m in healthcare and there was so much more to learn than we ever had to do in comms. I do like it better here, too, but it might just be the agency I landed at.

Is it too late in our lives to jump into a mortgage?

So my fiancée and I are relatively late in terms of finally landing well paying jobs and being able to save money instead of living paycheck to paycheck. We’re both 36 and currently rent a 2 bedroom in NY and have a combined savings of $35,000 which she wants to use as a down payment on a condo. I kinda just wanna continue saving while renting. I also literally just started contributing to my 401K so I’m also late in the game for that too.
