Nashville (closer to Atlanta, lots of live music events, good bar scene, can do distillery tours)
Wisconsin (closer to Chicago, good cheese and pretty in summers)

Chicago def in the summers! Its pretty and lotsa things to do outside of usual touristy stuff. Check out street festivals, food trucks, beer festival, block parties, Segway tours etc.

Sorry, guess I should've stated that I'm not considering Chicago because I'll be spending the entire next two weeks there and have experienced ATL many times. Trust me Chi summers are my favorite

Madison WI. Music, art, lake. Asheville NC - hiking, mountain biking, waterfalls, beer, music, Vanderbilt estate

My suggestion is spend your time in Chicago.

Thinking of splitting evenly across large, mid, small caps, and growth, value funds using DCA.

How can I know I'm getting the best salary and not just settling at the low end of the range?

It’s been asked before whether it’s worth it to pay (~$150) to upgrade a 3 hr flight. I generally agree it is not. But what if your two tweenagers bicker nonstop and are complete and total jerks to you all the time and your spouse chooses the “they’ll grow out of it” approach to things so basically you just want 3 hours of alone time. Then is it worth it?

(Note, in this scenario, they are all entirely too naive to realize it isn’t a system comped upgrade.)
