I'm wondering if I should leave training and development and get into IT. I like the former but I know the latter will be more lucrative.

I hate business people that love to talk but never want to give you time to say what you're trying to say. Get 2 words into your sentence and they're already trying to cut you off.

reason you have to keep grinding in this tech shyt. Within two years the company will move in another direction which means many of us if we aren't willing to learn new shyt, we will be let go. Even then I question how many seats at the table for what is next. So I need to hit the ground running. Literally need to breath, live cloud in the next 2-3 months so I can bounced. They will pay for all of them, I just need to dedicate the time but with my job potentially on the line within a year or two. I need to grind hard so all options can be on the table for my next role.
I'm glad my mom is finally investing. I wish, for her sake, she would have started sooner. But this is what kids are for, to learn from the parents and do better. I'm going to keep contributing to this 401k and, when this car gets paid off, start paying into my own portfolio again.
I think the beauty of having a 401k is being able to watch it grow and condition yourself to understand the importance of regular contributions. I'm not going to meet the 1x your salary by 30 milestone, but at least I'm seeing growth.

This is why I tend to prefer roles that involve programming. Even if you have to learn something new all languages have basic fundamentals that are transferrable so picking up a new language isn't terribly difficult.
Also, most people don't like it or aren't very good at it so there's always demand for it plus legacy systems exist everywhere so even if you have an "outdated" skillset for your current workplace, someone out there probably needs your skillset for something. I mean, COBOL and Fortran programmers are still out here...if you know any modern language I feel comfortable saying you at least shouldn't struggle to stay employed if you know your stuff.
Company just announced WFH until September and then 2 days a week in the office.
Gonna have a post-covid summer of socializing as long as I'm not too hungover in the morning lol.
