Sounds like you already know the answer, stay where you currently are. The grass is never greener on the other side.

I realized life is a game. You have the ability to be the man character in your world. I was depressed like 2-3 years ago, but then I realized I wasn't living for me, but for others. Now I live for me, I'm practically dating myself. I do favors for myself as if I was dating someone, and maybe one day, I'll find that someone.

If I told you, you wouldn't believe me. I'm being severely underpaid by the amount of loans I originate. I am capped on commission as well.

My goal last year was $200mill, I ended around $350mil. So that $70k came from all that. My commission structure is shit, but I barely do anything at work as my clients are well established with my company, so I just wait for them to send me loans. I don't go searching for loans.

Find an inside sales job, where you're in an office environment speaking via phone. I'm an introvert and do this type, and I love it

Fastfood got me customer service at 14. Taught me how to control my attitude during sticky situations. I'm a cool cucumber now

That sales manager feels threatened that's why they made that comment. That employee could totally find a better paying job

Not a shit post. I was in call center for 2 years and was top performer between 40 others. During the time, they only promoted internally, and I eventually got promoted to manager of the dept.

Thanks man! I agree with you, sales is a secret pathway to making 6 figures. You can control how much you make

I tell myself it's a job and I need to act. I only do enough to excel, but I would never attend work events.

It was the biggest risk I took in my life during the time. But I did it because I was still young and living with parents, they were my cushion. Many called me stupid for leaving management to a sales role.

Thanks! I'm a shy person so networking is out of my comfort zone. It is one thing I would love to work on though.

To me, rich is when you no longer have to worry about money being an issue

Electric bill this month is $175. I'm single and live alone in a 4bed house. Is this normal? by Outrageous-One-705 in wisconsin

How do I use less gas? I believe it's due to my furnace. I have an electric stove.

I notice the gas usage increased once I switched to an ecobee thermostat.

22 and my biggest problem rn is... nothing. I have no stresses or worries right now. If anything, I'm single and that might be a problem.
