26yo, 110k, 1.9K, it could be cheaper but since I don't go out much, the money saved for not going out offsets the expenses for a nice apartment.

23, 70k, $1350/mo

24, 77k. 1.2k rent

25F, 100k & I pay $2500 a month in mortgage (but I’m trying to pay it off faster so I will pay anywhere from $2500-4000 depending on my expenses that month)

Why? What’s your interest rate? Mortgage Interest is tax deductible. I would rather just invest the money into a MM fund or invest through retirement funds Roth/401k

25, 90k, $1,750

24, 90k, $1790

24yo, 81,500K, 1900rent

Hi peeps!
Got two offers on the table, who love to hear your advice!

- Finance Business Partner for a late stage (Series D/valuation 3B) startup tech company

- Corp Dev analyst role for a listed niche gambling company

The tech job pays 15k more, but from what I can see will be a cluster and super long hours (has EU stakeholders). Maybe a pipe dream, but I want to have a "somewhat" decent wlb while still growing my career toward strategy and finance.

Thoughts on which one is better?
