THE CAREER CHANGE FINANCIAL PLANNERBreak Away Without Going Broke (SM) |
I had to chuckle at the line “In this recovery, flat is the new up” in the Newsweek article Joblessness is Here to Stay by Rana Foroohar. Unfortunately, the rest of the article doesn’t provide a lot of reasons to laugh, but many reasons to manage your money as if an unplanned career change [...]

The same is true for some lucky career changers, who happen to want a change that doesn’t require a major investment in additional education or business start-up costs, a big pay cut, a period of under- or unemployment, or [...]

I’m fresh off yet another incredibly valuable event hosted by Network for Work professional networking group. Leaders Tammy Hildreth, Jim Starrett, and Paul Philbrick assembled a panel of 6 professionals who specialize in various aspects of career transition — the sometimes exhilarating, sometimes daunting experience most members are working their way through as we speak.
