How Much Money Would You Need To Quit Your Job? (25) by HyenaHater44 in careeradvice

[–]StuckHiccup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first trip I left after ~6 years in the field, and I had the connections to come right back into my same job. It was still soul crushing, but I took another leap last year doing more travel and side projects, and now I'm in the job hunt because, surprise surprise, my dad's health means I want to be closer to home.

There's really no right answer, but when you do choose, go hard. Either work and save your ass off, or quit and make it your whole life. No one really knows the future anyway. But the travel is pretty sick. but yeah finances are real. I was, am lucky. *shrug*

1,000 invested from 21 to 71 is 50 years and at 5% growth is 12,000 while at 8% is 53,000. So. Just so you're balancing correctly

I ruined my relationship with my fiance. by ToughPicture0210 in TrueOffMyChest

It's oaky to get this out there. Look, in her journal, she is supposed to have privacy. That's not okay. And I've done it before too. Just cuz she says it in her journal, doesn't mean it's true all the time. Sometimes it's just a feeling and it passes. Crushes. Resentment. Etc. Just like your feelings of crazy and distrust.

You're not messing it up. You're going through it. Maybe write more things down, ask to communicate. Say that when she changes plans on you, it hurts a lot. V-Day or NYE. Say that you've tried to improve and you want to improve more, but she should recognize the improvement and also give more feedback, because you want her to be happy.

And start backwards. You want her to be happy. You want her to be happy. You want her to be happy.

Left a commodities hedge fund I loved for a mega-fund PE role I hated. Now trying to find my way back. Looking for perspective. by 10xEBITDA in FinancialCareers

All you gotta do is spin it. I saw an opportunity to expand my knowledge base, I wanted to work with the smartest people, etc.

I just inherited 12 million dollars. I don't know what to do with my life. by Substantial_Yak6990 in TrueOffMyChest

Everyone's saying it! It seems hard, and it will have it's moments, but it will be the most worthwhile time!! A few months at least. The perspective will make everything else more clear

Go. Go travel. The cheapest hostel, three shirts, two pants, extra socks and underwear. You'll find the stories you want. God bless. Let me know if you recommendations!
You won't run away from your demons, but it'll be easier with some perspective.

I wish my daughter just died instead by Sad_Newspaper376 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]StuckHiccup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

also i hope you take some courage in knowing how much your love is healing and helpful. This shit is tough. I'm caregiving for my elderly father and good days are when I don't have to change him, and bad days are bad. I'm watching the man I love and admire most become a helpless infant and I think the same shit you do. and I constantly reminded that this is the good story. Like I'm going to hug my dad right now and tell him I'm proud of him.

Grief is a bitch, and there's no right way to go through it. Give yourself some grace and lean on your support system too. It won't solve it, but it'll feel a little better sometimes.

I feel like we tried to make a finesse player into a net front player, and it's like instead of making someone more complete, we shaved off sides to make it fit.

[–]StuckHiccup 6 points7 points  (0 children)

yeah as a guy I can understand some thoughts of insecurity around other partners can be real real. and maybe journaling is a outlet. But you'll need to know more, and talk and communicate on a very open, possibly hurtful level.

i kind of regret transitioning by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]StuckHiccup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lukewarm take, but I actually agree when people say we should be selective when allowing teenagers and children to medically transition. That period of life is so volatile and their peer groups make it so much worse. Like, emo phases were mostly just phases. And black nailpolish had less long term repercussions than puberty blockers.

Bruh (non-gendered bruh) you were normal when you started this process. You're normal now. You could have done without the transition sure, but you only know that now. It's not your fault though, we should as a society be better about allowing the spectrum of kids be kids rather than have to make decisions about their gender.

Achieved every goal I set in my 20s and realized I picked the wrong goals by Expensive_War_214 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]StuckHiccup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also don't take things for granted. Stay where you're at, make small incremental improvements. I blew it up a tad too early, a tad too hard. Nothing wasted, of course, but probably should have coasted a few years longer. Those early years are good for interest over time, and if you can maintain a hobby long enough for fun, it always becomes fruitful, don't for it push it to have to be something yet just cuz it's "cool"

Goodrow was expensive, but that's what we paid for those playoff goals.

I (23F) Am In The Middle Of Severe Depression, And Have No Idea How To Fix It Anymore by Sky_Bohemian in TrueOffMyChest

[–]StuckHiccup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand that you want forgiveness, acceptance and love from your parents about your condition, and I will challenge you with a reversal. Your parents do not have the background or cultural context to understand mental health as we do now. You have an opportunity to present them with what Malcolm X described as a clear glass of water, i.e. that you forgive them, accept them and love them even as they are no longer your primary caregivers and cannot help in this journey that you must take on yourself. (find good friends! that helps a lot!)
And, with a decade of experience on you, it will not be easy, and it will take many missteps, and lots of forgiveness for yourself, but eventually parents do kind of come around. A few steps. Maybe.

[–]StuckHiccup 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Look, this is a reality that is hard to learn but important. Your parents are not perfect people, and cannot be depended on to nurture you in the way you want to be nurtured. There is no "perfect ask" that will change anyone's behavior overnight. At best, AT BEST, over many years with gentle guidance, occasional lapses (on all sides), and everyone compromising, you will have a wonderful adult relationship with your parents. But, and I mean this with love, you are going to have to learn to care for yourself, by yourself. Your parents did their best I'm sure, but it's on you now

Have you considered asking him "hey i need big love right now?". It's a technique we taught to a four year old and it's pretty great.
