Stocks are too risky. I put all my investments in crypto.

Manage my own, although it’s fairly low maintenance - investing for the long run b/c I don’t plan to, for example, purchase real estate anytime soon

I should perhaps note I don’t define long term as 3-5 or even 10y

Deloitte did not allow robo investing (independence rules have not caught up with the policies). Have you checked if EY allows it? I’m gonna join EY soon so this will be helpful

EY allows robo investing

2. I use to do my own stocks but it was too much hassle as well as balancing my job and life. I make less using an advisor in this economy but I feel confident when there’s a downturn I won’t lose as much as an advisor. It’s risk vs reward for me.

Even to this day, I feel like I have crippling anxiety and imposter syndrome when speaking. It’s easier in project read outs and dedicated client meetings, but much worse when I’m going in cold or without a set agenda. Has anyone worked with / used a coach, tools, etc. to help with this? Recommendations?

There’s an opportunity to step up into the role of Director of Product, but I’ve only got 2.5 years of experience and am already being paid below average by like 15%. I’ve accepted this because A. My company has historically underpaid people but I still like the people and B. My lack of experience. I think a promotion would come with a raise, but the percentage difference would most likely only grow and I’m not sure that would be ok with the responsibilities I’d be stepping into. Any advice?
