Do you have a set $ you save every month? I'm 27, I've been tracking spend since 2020 and my $ saved has very strong variances MoM. If we consider 2021 a more "regular" year, I varied from $600 saved one month up to $3.2k in another (though that was partially due to a job change)... It's not affecting my overall saving % (was 46%) but wondering if I should try to even it out a bit more?

In need of some advice- I’m a second year and currently work as legal counsel for a private home builder/developer.

I’m attracted to the pay but I’m worried that I’ll be pigeon holed into construction moving forward… cont
