Agreed. I neglect to mention that I'm like 60% cash, 40% investments right now, trying to sit on a pile to be able to really go in if we see a ~40% drop.

So I have been made an offer by a company I like but it’s pretty similar to my current package (I also like where I am).

I’m close to send them to get stuffed. I’m also awaiting a promo and interview feedback from Google. Any advice?
