I keep seeing jobs offering amazing pay, but they’re in cities where rent alone could eat half your paycheck. I recently interviewed for a $130k role in NYC, and when I ran the numbers, I’d barely be breaking even after housing, taxes, and basic expenses. Meanwhile, lower-paying jobs in smaller cities offer actual breathing room. At what point does comp stop mattering if it just disappears into rent?

Is IB worth the sacrifice of WLB? Obvious pay is really good but are the prestige and pay worth it if you’re planning on only doing it for a couple years?
