Started earning six figures two years out of undergraduate, it’s set me up nicely. After 5 years of work, I am surpassed 250k in investments, bought a house, own my car in full, travel internationally for about month each year, so far it’s been pretty good.

Nobody likes a bragger.

HHI around 200k in London.
Dinners out weekly and planes to Europe 5-6 times a year, we still save about 35% of the net income.

Not too bad.

Six figures is barely making it these days.

Currently unemployed, and looking at a job offer of around 62k base, small firm. Not my preferred choice but this is the first offer in three months. They also took a month to get me the offer with corona and internal restructuring. Two questions:
1) The contract doesn’t mention a notice period in the probation period. What’s a good way to ask? 2) If I manage to secure another offer between contract signing and start date, would this involve any financial liabilities?

Hey Guys,
I have a close friend who is facing a small dilemma which is not allowing him to decide if he should join NIIT or a European company as a Manager recruiter. At NIIT he is supposed to recruit call centre professionals whereas the other company is an IT consulting and service provider. Also in the European company he gets to manage an internationally diverse team. The salary offered is almost the same. He is confused majorly because NIIT is a brand and the other is not. Please help
