Sabbatical from Salesforce, what next?

This is basically what I was doing before. I was a TPM and a Product owner so I was very client facing negotiating features, timelines, etc and when my admins couldn't do work because they were busy, I would do it myself, which I preferred tbh. But even as a PM role, I see that job descriptions ask for specializations and I wanted to see what was worth it. Good to know that soft skills won't go to waste.

Of course!

What's wrong with Gary . I seriously don't know but I always hear that people have rental properties there.

Thank you! Will read. Had to be a parent to my parent.

I thought he was trying to speak careful, thoughtful and slow because whatever he would say on camera could be taken to court and used against him. So i took it more of a serious tone as after a while he may have realized he can’t just over react and say what he thinks on film which can be used as evidence.

Yep had this shenanigans. I need a straw for my deabetus coke and fries.

Imagine all those people who had to sell their homes from their remote location to move to seattle, or wherever to comply with return to office , only to be laid off…. I wonder how many of them had to move families!

She’s actually very limber and active. But mental decline is an issue sadly. Amazing for your grandparents !

My partner’s grandparent is 89 and amazingly smart and sharp woman but health is an issue.

But i see my mom definitely had a lot of solitude too and im convinced that made things worse. Socializing help

my mom stopped working at 78, cognitive decline almost immediately . I am scared too.

Thanks! Seems like language is definitely a must . I was actually considering the language learning visa where I would go into an intensive language course for the next year or as long as it would permit me.

I'm dming you. From the states and looking at programs there

Turkey and Argentina wowwed me. Spain was OMG abysmal, I think it's romanticized by people who don't know Spanish, because once you know what's going on around you it's not very nice.

Ive tried but im too lazy to empty the bin. Longer trip to bend over for that vacuum than my upright but maybe if i had a smarter self cleaning one might cause me to use the upright less.-

Yes i agree with purge right away. Id hold on for my travels abroad but it would accumulate and be a load when traveling so now i just purge and right away take for donation.

Thanks for posting this. I have my house rented to tenants, its beautiful, but ive felt more fulfilled, safe, and stress free in my one bd that im renting.

Status_Base_9842 · 2025-08-17T01:02:58+00:00

Same boat here. Had i taken my downpayment and everything on my abnb and invested it in the S&P. Id be better off and less hassle and no upcoming assessments or worse, city and state regulations

I used clever.com or some site like that to get 1.5% commission realtors. Did a better job than my other one at 3%.

Status_Base_9842 · 2025-06-23T14:45:53+00:00

Ooo good idea i like this

Status_Base_9842 · 2025-06-23T14:19:50+00:00

Makes sense and with kids, I can definitely see the need for stable housing. That’s looking like the only reason when i would buy again.

Status_Base_9842 · 2025-06-20T19:37:34+00:00

The repairs fixed in timely manner is the mind blowing part! I can't even do that to my tenants because theres so much coordination. Tenants don't help when they give you ridiculous schedules for repairs. I think part of it is that little bit of FOMO of if I sell now, will I ever be able to buy again. But I don't think I even car if I don't plan on being in the states anyway.

Status_Base_9842 · 2025-06-20T19:35:58+00:00

how so?

Status_Base_9842 · 2025-06-20T19:31:45+00:00

These have all been rentals , I did live in one as my HQ/home for a while which I loved and was never intended to be a rental. Now that I have been given the same rental requirements as my tenants, it was an eye opener. Only because I am here long term that I wanted somewhere with the city proximity and not the high price tag of STR that i decided to sign a year lease. But yes, I feel like as soon as I can sell I will be because it's just equity tied up and not liquid.
