On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:- As the world rapidly changes around us, what skills should you consider leveling up, and what jobs will exist in the new economy?
- How do you network and get to know the team at a new company while remote?
- Should you still pay off the full balance of your credit card to avoid finance charges, or should you hold on to the cash until the pandemic's over?
- You love every aspect of your current job, but the perks are low and so is the pay. You know you could get full benefits and make three times more as a plumber. Is the choice as easy to make as it sounds?
- Life Pro Tip: Worried that your favorite restaurant will be hurt by the slow business due to the coronavirus? Buy a gift card from them now and use it later. It’s like a loan, and there are usually pretty decent savings included to sweeten the deal.
- Recommendation of the Week: Dirty Money Season 2
- A quick shout out to Angela Hodges for using advice she's learned from the show to create a Facebook group page where they're sewing facemasks for healthcare workers in NJ!

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Feedback Friday. I'm your host, Jordan Harbinger, and I'm here with producer |
| 0:07.9 | Jason Newfilippo. On the Jordan Harbinger show we decode the stories, secrets, and skills |
| 0:12.9 | of the world's most brilliant people, and turn their wisdom into practical advice that |
| 0:17.5 | you can use to impact your own life and those around you. If you're new to the show on |
| 0:22.3 | Fridays, we give advice to you and answer listener questions. The rest of the week, we |
| 0:26.4 | have long form interviews and conversations with a variety of amazing folks from spies |
| 0:31.2 | to CEOs, athletes to authors to thinkers and performers. This week, we had Ozon Verol. |
| 0:37.8 | He discussed how principles of rocket science and science in general can be applied to |
| 0:41.4 | business and life, and I think you'll really appreciate the way he thinks about problems. |
| 0:45.8 | I don't want to say backwards, but maybe with the end in mind, among other unique methods |
| 0:50.5 | of thought that I think are very practical and useful for those of us that are trying |
| 0:54.6 | to solve problems in our own lives and in our own businesses. We also had one from the |
| 0:58.2 | vault with Michelle Rigby Asat. She was a, well, a spy deployed abroad and she's got |
| 1:03.3 | quite the story or set of stories. And I enjoyed hearing about those and I think you will |
| 1:07.1 | too. I also write every so often on the blog. The latest post is about how to stay productive |
| 1:11.8 | under quarantine or, of course, in this lockdown. But I've been working from home for 13 plus |
| 1:17.1 | years. Jason, you've been working from home for 20 plus years. Yeah, about 25. So I wanted |
| 1:22.0 | to do this piece based on some of the advice we talked about last time we did a feedback |
| 1:26.2 | Friday about working from home because there's so many pieces online about how to work |
| 1:29.7 | from home. And they're clearly written by people that always work in an office and then |
| 1:33.4 | Googled other things about how to work from home or have been working from home for five |
| 1:37.4 | days. And they're like, I've found that I need to get dressed in the morning. It's like, |
