Strategy & Ops at large tech company (non-FAANG) - 120K TC (San Francisco)

Rotational Program at Industrial Firm - 170K TC (Chicago)

Industrial Company:
- Would pay for grad school
- Comp is insane
- Work is more niche
- Company culture is rough
- MBB / tech exit
- smaller less known company

Tech Company:
- Cool company
- well known
- Enter tech early on
- Salary lower than other by a lot
- PM / Biz Ops exits

Both companies have good MBA placement. What would you do?

New to investing. I want to open a Roth IRA and put 3000$ in to buy VTSAX. My plan after that is to contribute 200- 300$ at the end of each month. Is that how you guys do it? Do you watch the market and buy on a specific day when the market is low or do you just pick a day of the month- lets say every 30th day of the month to add to your acct? Thanks

Did anyone here get sober and discover they were potentially self medicating symptoms of a neurodivergent brain? Ever since I got sober, I’ve have had MORE issues with executive functioning, racing brain, inability to focus. This was unexpected, as I thought I’d have more mental agility due to the fog lifting. Now my brain is running at full speed but I am unable to harness it. My brain is a honey badger. It doesn’t GAF.
Anyway, I’m now scheduled for an ADHD eval at the urging of my therapist.
