Must be tech. But 3 days a week??

If sales are a good fit-I would get out!

Plus 2 days a week at the golf course, work from home, hrs are great, expense account (able to really entertain without the expense report police coming down on you). Fuck I might have to look into a sales position

Ey1... Right?! Bought into the whole prestige of consulting/stability. Joke is on me. These ppl have the fattest 401s and saving accounts I've seen.

When I was hired, I don't recall being informed about my salary being tied to my location. My employment contract also only makes one mention of location, and says "home office" and my state. I was recently told by HR though that if I move, my comp. will be lower. Is this legal? Should I consult a labor lawyer?

In my mind, I don't recall being told this and it's not clear from my employment contract, so I feel like they're breaking our agreement, and it feels unfair.

What is a simple way to explain to my boyfriend that investing in equity with an expected return of 10% is better than paying off debt that is growing at a rate of 6%. He has student loans and is adamant that he wants to pay all of them off immediately before saving any retirement money. I understand that many individuals use this strategy but I think investing in index funds for the long haul is better from a wealth accumulation perspective, without even factoring in tax implications of 401k
