My husband just sent in 150$ to his cousin, whose friend who was in need. I keep getting requests for help with charities, go fund me, school pta etc. I am not opposed to helping out when I can, but sometimes there are 5/6 a month. The 150$ really bugs me. It’s not the amount he sent (I would have preferred 50$). But it’s the fact that he didn’t consult me in the amount. He apologized but I am now wondering if I am too cheap.

Looking at exits into pharma and biotech. Have an opp at a biotech at the SM level. Total comp excluding equity is around $190k; RSUs vest over 4 years with annual refreshers, so first year equity would be around $6,200 and it would go up by $6,200 each of the next 3 years, plus whatever base bump I get. Very good benefits package.

They envision 2-3 years before I jump either to AD or right to D. Solid opp? Or hold out to go straight to director level?
