Nashville TN

Given that median income is ~$40K and median household income is ~$80K, you should be able to afford a median lifestyle in a median COL city.

Personally, I'm pretty unhappy if I'm not earning at least 2x the median for my area, due to the expenses of dependents and preferred comforts.

Midwest in rural areas

👋Upper Midwest here.. don't count on it. Even rural areas are increasing in price as people move further out looking for cheaper places to live. 😭 Maybe southern edge states of the Midwest...

You could do Philly relatively comfortably if open to roommates

Had my first egg retrieval a few weeks ago. Still trying to comprehend what happened. All my ultrasounds and blood work came back perfect. In the end, I had 30 follicles and they were only able to retrieve 3 eggs. Our embryologist said my egg quality was very poor and one had been dead for a long time. None of my tests ever indicated any issues. I have tested my egg reserve twice and everything came back normal. Any thoughts/advice? I’m really at a loss for words.

I was in the final stages of an interview with Microsoft two weeks ago, in partner marketing. Then the recruiter told me they were putting the hiring process on hold to assess the need for the role. Well, then we heard about Microsoft layoffs last week. Seems like most were in Xbox and Project Alpha but there’s not a lot of information out there. Should I hold out any hope that I’m going to get this job? Any insights on how much these layoffs have impacted the marketing org and/or new hiring?
