Just curious to get some feedback here. My wife and I have a combined income of about $200k before taxes and have one child with another due in the Fall. Up until this year we’ve maintained decent savings but as of Jan 2025 we’ve really begun to feel a squeeze on our financials. We’ll be fine I think as I have a decent stack of physical silver (and by eliminating non-essential spending we’ll recoup some monthly funds) but I genuinely hope we’ll be feeling some relief soon.
How is everyone else here doing? After paying in $6k in taxes this month I’m really hoping for an end to the IRS soon :/
Curious, are you finding it difficult to find a job in your career field? or is it basically the entire job market in your area?
When I went to college for a degree in network infrastructure / IT, we were all told it would have great job security.
So much for that job security.
I've been applying everywhere, and I'm lucky to even get a rejection letter at this rate.
I'm sorry.
The barriers to entry in IT are extremely low.
