On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:
- As the world rapidly changes around us, what skills should you consider leveling up, and what jobs will exist in the new economy?
- How do you network and get to know the team at a new company while remote?
- Should you still pay off the full balance of your credit card to avoid finance charges, or should you hold on to the cash until the pandemic's over?
- You love every aspect of your current job, but the perks are low and so is the pay. You know you could get full benefits and make three times more as a plumber. Is the choice as easy to make as it sounds?
- Life Pro Tip: Worried that your favorite restaurant will be hurt by the slow business due to the coronavirus? Buy a gift card from them now and use it later. It’s like a loan, and there are usually pretty decent savings included to sweeten the deal.
- Recommendation of the Week: Dirty Money Season 2
- A quick shout out to Angela Hodges for using advice she's learned from the show to create a Facebook group page where they're sewing facemasks for healthcare workers in NJ!
