‘To be quite honest, 170 grand a year in DC isn’t as great as it sounds. You could live the same standard of living on 90 grand in Iowa as 170 grand in DC. Now, that’s not poor in any way and is a nice living, but let’s not make it into something it’s not.’

Originally from Akron, now living in the DC/Baltimore corridor. It’s definitely costing me a lot more to live here. Although, in my line of work I’ll make a lot more money once I get established.
