Never thought this could happen to me. Feels heavy
Has 2Js for 8 months now. Total comp 150k. Happy life.
Then suddenly at J2, i was invited to a meeting with my manager + hr. Boom, you are affected by organisational restructuring. I was speechless. Business is growing strong and making good profit, i never imagine my role could suddenly be eliminated.
I still have J1, im holding on to this job with my dear life. But im glad i made the crazy decision to try work both J. Now that im being laid off from J2 really got me spiralling thinking “what if that was my only job, how fucked am i”
Im glad i found OE.
But plot twist,
For past 8 months, i consistently use all my extra income in attempt to make more money by investing. With leverage. And i lost it all. Pain. €30k savings gone.
Im not sure what the lesson here is. But im gonna start really focusing at my life and living a slow life and stop trading and be grateful that i atleast still have a job and bounce back from this.
If i ever get an opportunity for a new J2, i will be more careful with my savings.
