Get the Uber card for restaurants (4% back), flights (3% back) and Uber/online shopping (2% back). Get the blue cash/blue cash preferred for groceries (blue cash is no annual fee and 3% back on groceries. Preferred is $95/year and 6% back on groceries)

Depends on your spend breakdown. Can you estimate how much per month you spend on groceries, restaurants, travel (Uber, cabs, flights), etc?

50% grocery, 30% restaurants and 20% travel

If you shop there, the Costco Visa card is pretty good with 3% back on all travel and restaurants. 6% for gas is also pretty sweet.

Great. Thanks guys

I was offered $42k plus bonuses at the interview, but when called back I was offered $44.5k plus bonuses. I already accepted. Did I leave money on the table here?

Working as a Senior Accountant at Vanguard with my CPA; 3 YOE, Greater Philadelphia area. Took this job to give accounting one more try and while I don’t regret it I’m bored. Anything in finance more challenging/less box-checking? People have recommended public but I’m not interested in audit/tax or travel.

Serious question - is there a reverse FIRE strategy? I like the idea of saving and retiring early, but the one hiccup I see (and sorry if this is grim) is if you die earlier than expected. I’d be worried that I would minimize lifestyle and fun for retirement at 50 but I’d die at 49. How about a way to work 9 months out of the year and retire/travel/relax for 3 months? This way you guaranteed your dreams/etc. are fulfilled
