South end / back bay!

likefunny

Southie is very young feels like frat row during the summer, north end is close to downtown but packed with tourists most weekends, Ink block is trendy with Whole Foods/soul cycle under the Apts, Cambridge/Somerville is cheaper with a ton of stuff to do, but most people stay on their side of the Charles so if you have friends in Boston it may be tougher logistically

I don’t live Mass anymore but Back Bay has my vote - there are cool places in Cambridge too but I’d stick to places where you have easy T access (which is why I would rank Seaport or Southie lower).

Ultimate dream would be Beacon Hill but those nicer units are hella expensive lol

Southie! Also from Boston

Imagine living in back bay as a recent graduate. Have fun spending >50% of your salary on rent!

First years make ~$120K cash I think they'll be alright.

Allston-Brighton, Back Bay-Beacon Hill, East Boston, Jamaica Plain, and South Boston are all great.

First-gen and new hire in my first job. Vyvanse was typically covered under my parents’ insurance but now I’m looking to sign up for (my first) health insurance plan with my employer. I’m worried if Vyvanse will be fully covered or not. Anything I should look out for?

Things are apparently going to get better after a client will be leaving, I’ll get to work on different brands but I am feeling pretty burnt out from the agency I’m at. Will new clients help? Or should I look elsewhere. Been at the agency almost 3 years, I feel like I need to switch things up for my sanity.

What is a simple way to explain to my boyfriend that investing in equity with an expected return of 10% is better than paying off debt that is growing at a rate of 6%. He has student loans and is adamant that he wants to pay all of them off immediately before saving any retirement money. I understand that many individuals use this strategy but I think investing in index funds for the long haul is better from a wealth accumulation perspective, without even factoring in tax implications of 401k
