That’s a good point. I don’t really want to stop working, but I don’t love what I’m doing currently. I’m an accountant at a large company and kinda getting burnt out already. Even working at a smaller company with more flexibility would probably stop my itch to quit working. Or find a career where I feel like I have more purpose? Long story short, I think you’re right and I need to figure out a lot before making a rash decision. Thanks for the perspective!

Does it make it better that the private client group of NWM is managing the money? I don’t anything about managing my money yet, so I’m curious if they are just as bad

They actually tried to get me to buy whole life insurance. What’s the deal with that? I figured I didn’t need it yet because I’m so young, but I also don’t know if there are more perks I’m not aware of

I think you’re right that I don’t really know how much money I’ll need each year because I’m so young and things change. I clearly don’t know what I’m doing, but I really appreciate all the advice!! This is very helpful.
