S1 E4: "Capitalism is working for me. So how could I hate it?" Nov 07, 2019

Show notes

Today's Question
"As a progressive person, and someone who is starting to get into a pretty good place financially (have an emergency fund, bought a home a few years ago, paid off credit card debts), I've started feeling so guilty! It probably doesn’t help that I work in finance too. I don’t like capitalism but I’m working it the way I’m 'supposed' to. How do I feel less guilty for making myself financially healthy?"

S1 E3: "My parents have bad credit. Should I help by co-signing their mortgage?" Oct 31, 2019

Show notes

Today's Question
"I currently live with my parents (22) and they want to sell our house and move into another. My dad can't be on [the mortgage] because his credit is low so it would be my mom as the primary and me as cosigner. I am wondering if this is a good idea because I'm pretty nervous about this. I don’t want to ruin my credit or be stuck on a 30-year loan. If I move out can they take me off the mortgage? Thanks for any help."

S1 E2: "I'm starting a new job tomorrow. How the heck should I behave on my first day?!" Oct 24, 2019

Show notes

Today's Question
Hey Bitches! I hope you can help me on time. I recently accepted a job offer after 6+ months of being unemployed!! I start this Monday and I want to know: what are the most important things you should do on your first day at work?

I'm a fresh grad so all this is new. I keep finding lists with like 15 things, and that's way too much to keep track so I need help! Also one bit of advice I saw often was that I should ‘check in’ throughout the day with my manager/boss: how exactly do I do this?

S1 E1: "I've decided to look for a new job. Is it a bad idea to tell my current coworkers?" Oct 02, 2019

Show notes

Today's Question
When, if ever, is it good/OK to tell people you’re job hunting in your current place of employment? For example, is it ever a good/OK idea to: tell a friendly co-worker, either just for moral support, or to ask them to keep an eye out for opportunities, or help you brainstorm your strengths so you can position yourself well for what’s next?

What about with a superior at your current job? Is there a useful way to bring this up in the form of negotiation to get something you want at your current job? Or does it just put you at risk to let them know you’re looking elsewhere? I have been told that in the world of academia, it’s typical to tell your institution that you’ve been invited to interview elsewhere in order to renegotiate your position. But it’s hard for me to picture doing this in working environments I’ve been in.
