What are you cutting back on to save money? Everything is crazy expensive, and I'm regretting purchasing my heavy duty pickup last year. Since I can't cut back on gas, maybe I should skip breakfast in the mornings.

Gas prices will always fluctuate. I know it’s an additional cost, but maybe an older, good on gas car is something you could get.

To be honest, I have not changed much of anything. Mainly because I have usually lived below my means. I purchase my vehicle a few years ago, it uses premium gas... it was $4.xx per gallon at that time. it's about the same maybe a little more. There is a big difference between price fluctuations and idiots making decisions that cause costs to rise or to provide the companies with an excuse to inflate prices (take it how ever you want to). I am comfortable financially. It's just me.

You need a good breakfast to start the day.

Hi all,
Been doing privacy for about a year now in-house. Got my CIPP/US.
Having major imposter syndrome still. I feel like the minute I finally have a grasp, something changes. The law and nuances just seem overwhelming. Maybe it’s just a lack of guidance/uniformity in the US. I’m not sure if I feel this way because it is simply the nature of the work or because I’m just not capable.
😔

I am looking to make a career change to HR. I currently make 75K as a sales and development coach.

My question is those currently in an HR role, would this move make sense to you?
