What constitutes a company as a fin tech company? Is it literally just a financial company that deals with tech innovation? So not big commercial banks.

Student loans—I currently have about 5 yrs left on my 10 yr private variable loan (originally at $101k, down to $58k). Rate is 3.50% right now. Can refinance as a 5yr fixed at 4.25%. Is it worth it? My interest rate will go up initially but assuming rates go up again it will save me $$$ later. Thoughts? I feel like it depends where the economy goes over the next several years.

Thinking of switching employers. Do you think bigger retail stores (the ones that have several locations) are easier or harder to work at than little hole-in-the-wall grocery stores (which is all I've ever done)? It seems like the larger chain stores would have more downtime, but I'm wondering if anyone could give some input.
