If you’re the person from Pwc that keeps lobbing out middle market FDD shops to try cut a year off getting into diligence work, I would really recommend waiting it out until you have a full three busy seasons in big4 audit then jumping to a big 4 FDD practice. There are a lot of upsides to diligence work, but also a lot of negatives and many people quickly move on to other things. Leaving fdd from Big4 you will have way more and better doors still open.

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.

Help,I started a new career n the events industry and I think I have to quit! The person I report to is so disorganized and there are no other managers in the office to direct day to day operations of our department. On day 2 I was asked to go to a job site and perform a 12 hour day without any training, safety equipment or tools. On day 3 I was asked back to site to do general labor! I ended cutting my hand on an exacto knife and there was no first aid! Is this normal?
