Your career and personal success motivates us. It brings us joy to find out our clients are receiving job promotions, changing careers, moving into consulting and getting closer to a quality of life career change that ends the route to career burnout. For this reason, we are excited to bring you new relevant articles authored by Anita Bruzzese, a leading journalist and author providing advice to working women and men to help them get ahead in their careers. By bringing some of the latest information on how to navigate your career, we hope you will think of us too when your next job change is here; and you are wondering what to do with your 401k, ESPP, RSUs, and other matters relating to your finances. I firmly believe, the stronger your finances are, the more career risk you can take. When your financial foundation is solid and not completely dependent on your employer, it won’t come tumbling down when you face change at work.You stand at your window and look across the street. Nice house, you think. Nice landscaping. Nice sports car. Nice driveway. New bikes for the kids. Wow, your neighbors are really well off. If only you had that kind of money.
That plain home down the street with the older model sedan parked out front pales in comparison. A couple in their seventies lives there, and the front yard hasn’t been spruced up in a decade. Who knows, maybe they struggle just to get by.
If you could somehow look into the financial lives of those two households, you might be surprised. The couple with all the toys might not be as wealthy as the neighborhood perceives, while the vanilla exterior on that humble rancher might hide a multimillionaire next door.
