Investments, do you have them? How often do you check them? Unfortunately for me it's late in life and I haven't had a life where I could really save or invest in anything. I'm not sure what someone would even need to retire these days.
I'm guessing it's in the millions. Are you saving for your future, and if so how? Do you check on it often and adjust? What's your strategy and how do you do it?

That’s a smart strategy.

I currently work as an APM at a FAANG company but recently received an offer to join an MBB. I’m very excited about the role but didn’t realize I’d need to take a pay cut when I applied (~100k base + ~20k bonus + ~60k equity vs. 90k base + 10-20k bonus). Considering that I currently work 40-60 hours/week, I’ll be making significantly less per hour at the MBB. I’m very interested in the opportunity but also don’t want to make a poor financial decision early in my career. Thank you for your time!
