Hi fellow fish need some advice.

I'm planning a wedding and wondering if I should apply for new credit cards to maximize on points. If so, wondering what your recommendations are and or if there are new cards out there I haven't heard of yet. For context I probably have another 20k+ in expenses to pay still and my current cards are:

CSP
Marriott Bonvoy Boundless
Citi double cash
Random card (used to be uber)

Why do people accrue prepaid expenses?

Most creative agencies in SF?

Why the heck does being good at writing and concept mean I should spend MORE time in meetings? This system makes no sense. just let me do what I'm GOOD at.

My partner, a travel agent and reservations specialist, was displaced over a year ago when COVID hit. She has booked millions worth of product and it’s been painful to witness her recovery in finding a job she’s happy with.

Any recommendations for people like her? I suggested starting her own business as a travel consultant assisting other travel companies with their bookings, etc.

She’s incredibly talented and I’d appreciate any ideas I could relay to her. Thanks!

I put in my two weeks! But now it's weird here haha. Agencies should ask you to leave and pay you out. This is silly.

I have an associate's degree in graphic design and work designing wedding stationery. I've been at my company since 2016, and am now a design consultant - speaking to customers directly and creating custom artwork and designs for them. I know I'm underpaid (50k/year in the SF Bay Area) but I thought the benefits and stability were worth it. I'm now severely burnt out (most of my team is) and not sure which way to go, or how to grow. Any tips/advice?

Thanks!

Has any creative here ever tried to make the leap to leave advertising and be a film maker, photographer, illustrator, etc.?? I’m so tired of ad agencies and how draining the “creative” can be.
