1 month in as a Senior Developer Advocate at Auth0 :)
3 months ago, I was navigating a layoff at 7 months pregnant. Today, I couldn’t be more excited about where I landed

@bogleheaddev I’m sorry brother. Tech is so difficult right now. I’m entry-level/career switching and applied more than 100 times and have gotten maybe 5 calls with no follow up. Experience is everything right now so I know you can get another job 🫡
Stocks are insane
I was at $821,000 2 months ago
I hit $660k yesterday
Now back to $700k after today
I’m going to puke.
This isn’t good for mental health
$VUSXX (Treasury MMF) can be a good choice to park your cash savings
It currently has a 3.66% yield
It holds 95% T-bills, making it mostly state/local tax exempt.
Good option for people with high state & local taxes (CA, NY, NJ, IL, etc)
@bogleheaddev@MrsAA55 That’s how I ended up with my house. Someone put an offer before us & was accepted but they couldn’t get a mortgage so we got the house
It’s 17 weeks since we accepted an offer on our house, their buyers are first time buyers…17 weeks and those first time buyers still don’t have a mortgage offer…our deadline is Friday, if nothing forthcoming we officially withdraw our property…what a fucking waste of time 😤
4 neighborhood girls came to our house today asking to wash our car for $10. Obviously we said yes (even though we didn't need it)! Gave them $20. Love to see kids still being kids.
