First "Big Girl Job" lol

So, on this lovely Valentine's Day, I received a salary offer for the job that I've been wanting. Tbh, I have never made more than 12k a year. I live in the south and have always struggled financially. I've talked about my schooling process over the years on here. So some of you may know that I recently received my bachelor's with honors a few days after my 26th birthday last December.

I am so happy to say that I was offered a salary of 62,500 dollars, a 5k sign-on bonus, and 18,000 in RSU (Restricted Stock Units). I cannot tell you guys how thankful I am for the position I am in. This may not sound like a lot of money to some of you, but it is life-changing for me. I have struggled so much to get here, and I have to say to never give up on yourself. Also, I am from the south, so our cost of living is cheaper than in other places in the US. I've also found the man of my dreams, and I just cannot believe the life I am living at this moment lol. If you would have asked me a year ago if I saw this coming, I would have said hell no. I was down in the dumps over a breakup with an ex of five years who was emotionally and verbally abusive. But with family, friends, and the most wonderful man ever, I was able to make it through one of the most difficult times of my life.

If you read this, shout out to you. And let this be a reminder that things can change for you in the blink of an eye!
