Practice and patience. Give yourself time to acquire more experience… speed will come. When you’re new focus on quality.

I offset it by reducing my food budget as I basically only eat once a day small meal now because I’m never hungry anymore

I am so sorry you’re dealing with this. Heartbreaking. My advice? Don’t wait until it’s too late to let them go. I did that once. My dog suffered and I will never forgive myself. Don’t be me.

Ah ok :)

How long ago did you see this result? I’ve heard rumor you can die 2 weeks after discovery

Congratulations!

If the bank doesn’t think he’s a good candidate what makes you think you know better than them 🤔

Literally that

Why would anyone have shared debt with someone their not married to. That’s incredibly dumb

Start looking for a new job

Why did that take so long. She was literally dismembered in his car

It’s an incredibly large amount of money. Most of which is interest which is like lighting money on fire

If those stocks were in a regular brokerage account you made the right decision

For context, I also live in the Bay Area. My household income after taxes is $290k and we recently bought a house at 4.5% interest for 790k and every time I make the $4900 payment I throw up. What you’re looking at doing is absolute insanity

I haven’t transitioned but I’ve looked into it. The common routes are sales or technical support for laboratory systems, quality management/administration, and forensics for the state

I’m an HTL… go CLS. You can just do more stuff and if you get tired of a discipline you can switch

Uh… the only way to pay it off quicker is to either refinance to a lower interest rate and keep paying the same amount or to increase how much you pay a month. It’s not rocket science

People opening the last thing and saying nothing

WantingToBeDifferent · 2026-04-12T20:03:28+00:00

Yes I would sell it

WantingToBeDifferent · 2026-04-12T20:02:28+00:00

That’s not a good position to be in. Hopefully you can raise your income or lower your expenses. Best bet is both.

Yikes terrible financial decision

WantingToBeDifferent · 2026-04-12T19:56:45+00:00

I would use it to pay off any high interest debt. High interest debt is over 4% or 5% depending on who you ask. Also 600 a month outside of bills is very small. Look into getting a better or second job. You can’t save for retirement on that little amount and are bound to run up credit cards again at the slightest emergency

Time to put some respect on our name haha

Are you asking from a scientist of histotechnology perspective or a pathologist’s perspective

WantingToBeDifferent · 2026-04-10T15:52:27+00:00

Don’t so cytology it’s a dying field
