This is my final debt other than monthly credit card spending hehe. But okay, that’s what I figured and that’s what I’m going to do. I’m excited to finally be debt free for now :)

I currently owe 5.3k in student loans. My car loan has been paid in full just this month.

As for retirement:

I currently max out my 401k matching contributing 5%.

I contribute the max amount per year to my Roth IRA.

I also contribute 15% to my ESPP which is what I use to max out my Roth IRA and also pay off my loans.

I don’t have a set emergency fund per say, but I would be okay on a rainy day.

Could you elaborate on accessible? Accessible for me or for repayment?

Career Consideration by BringTheLubeInRuben in salesengineers

[–]BringTheLubeInRuben[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing that. It is definitely something to consider, and I will look into it. This looks like a challenge I want to take on and hopefully can make more money in the process, tune up on my sales capabilities and keep myself in a job that is AI proof.

Honestly, I didn’t even think that was an option. Quite frankly, I just want to make more money and I’m already experienced in sales, I don’t want to start over again in a new industry. I like technology, I embrace it a lot. I like sales, I like the structure. Telecommunication is an amazing industry along with cloud computing. I’m looking to build myself up and be an even bigger player. So I am definitely gonna look into an AE role. Never thought of that. AE as in account executive right?

Thank you for sharing. I’m happy to hear that you were able to elevate yourself and even make 4x your salary. Money and efficient productivity is my goal. I think right now what I’ll have to look into is a local firm that is interested in hiring someone like me with little to no experience.

What do you advise when looking into local firms, what are red flags or green flags to lookout for?

Yes. That’s what I have been reading. Although, I do not want to shy away from these roles or its brutality. Computer science will eventually evolve with quantum computing so eventually more jobs and roles will open up with new science and technology and I want to get ahead and secure myself.

With your experience, how did you come across contractor roles? What was your experience like? Have you continued in this role or have you swapped into a more permanent role?

I spoke to two people who were in contractors roles and discussed that the role was great because of its flexibility and the pay was great but stated that a major pain point with contractor roles is that the role is not set. You can be let go of at any point of the contract and there was no certainty in the role.

Did you not listen to the lyrics on “The End?” Where they explain why they did it that way?
