Questions: Education & Career

Would you pay for your kid (s) college tuition? What's your limit?

I told my kids we would pay for an in state college with reasonable tuition. The limit is about 15k per kid per year for their associates, since they will both be going around the same time. They can live at home or pay their own rent if they live elsewhere. If they want a more expensive college option, they have to pay the difference. If they fail a class they have to pay for it. My husband also plans to use his GI bill on them even though it won't do much.

Part of the reasoning is because our income will likely disqualify them from most financial aid. Otherwise, college here would be nearly free.

If you had a chance to move far away to an area with a better cost of living compared to your salary, giving you the opportunity to build up your finances better, would you?

Would you move for a better job with higher wages?

Would you move to build your net worth, own a house sooner, maybe retire earlier or with more?

What are you willing to do to get ahead faster financially in life?

How far are you willing to go? 🤔

the news did a piece on why employers are getting turned off by Gen Z job seekers stating issues with inappropriate dress attire, asking for too much money and (the kicker for me 🤣) bringing a parent to their interview (who does that 🤦🏼‍♀️).

At work, we have team meetings every week where we outline our duties step by step. We were told it was for “process improvement.” The meetings were supposed to end in December. However, it’s been extended until employee merit reviews are done in June.
what should I think of that?
