Comment on Miscellaneous unsolicited (and possibly biased) career advice

This one I think is valuable for all ages: "When you’re young, care more about building human quickly and not so much about financial capital. The human capital will pay much larger dividends over your lifetime."

I've worked from home quite a bit over the past few years and I've begun to notice it affecting my personal/communication skills. I'm actually trying to get back into the office more often.

Having worked remotely for a startup and within a really nice office for a corporate hell hole, I'm now convinced that the best balance for productivity / sanity for me is in-office 4 days a week with a handful of remote days.

When I was fully remote, after a few weeks I joined a really unique co-working space that was really more of a social club (Hall Boston - now defunct for any curious). It was a really special place, but in hindsight I didn't get much work done when I was focusing there. However, gives me hope for a resurgence of community driven social clubs for city dwellers and entrepreneurial types.
