Nice but good luck spending only 15k on a wedding.

The thing I keyed in on is that you have not surrounded by anybody that you can share your success with. Spend less time growing your net worth in more on meaningful relationships, you'll thank me.

So I recently accepted a 12 month contract-hire position at a much larger company. Pay is more than 50% of my salary, and benefits/401k is covered by the recruiting agency. I was confident in my now manager, who told me directly this will become a permanent role. However, i’m nervous about where the economy is going to be within the next year, and after getting a few linked in messages to interview for full time positions, I’m starting to second guess myself. Thoughts? Advice?

That little extra effort against something you didn’t “have” to do, every day, overtime will make you invaluable
