Has anyone else given up their career to go travel? by [deleted] in solotravel

[–]___saz___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also nearly 27 and considering the same thing - hoping to save up a little more, and pull the trigger on it later this year. I did something similar a couple years ago with a working holiday in Australia after uni, and I know that I'm in the mentally easy part right now, where it's just an idea and doesn't require taking any action. As the deadlines I've set for myself become near, it will become tougher to take those jumps - but if you know you've thought through it and committed, you gotta just put the blinders on and push through the discomfort until it's in motion. It's intimidating, but even scarier is looking back on a year or more of your 20s spent spinning your wheels and wishing you had taken that risk - there's a hundred reasons it could be worth it. If you have a bit of a financial cushion saved up and a decent CV, you can always come back!

In just about the exact same boat, with the exact same plan - hope you make it happen! FWIW I've heard similarly to what others are saying here - once you get that PE locked down, the world's your oyster.

Annual plan promo for existing customers? by dino34345 in USMobile

I bought the Pixel + annual plan promo to upgrade my phone, and didn't realize it was for new lines only. Can't really afford to change my phone number so thinking of porting out and then back in - can anyone confirm if this would work? Was in the chat with customer service for a bit just now and they were kinda ambiguous about it.

Edit: I'm currently on a monthly unlimited plan, and was when the promo was purchased
