Most people who want to change careers don’t quit because they’re not ready emotionally. They stay because they’re not sure they can afford to leave. In this episode of Couchside Conversations, Wealth Advisors Kevin Rex and Kristin Dillon speak from experience: Kevin left a successful medical sales career with a newborn and a second on the way to join Morton Wealth.
Kristin left hairdressing after a medical emergency forced a decision she’d been putting off for years. Together, they work through the financial and emotional calculus of making the leap, what you actually need in place before you go, and why the better question might not be whether you can afford to change, but whether you can afford not to.
