Oof. That’s a real tough amount man. It’s good money but for 4 and you’re sole income, it’s not enough for boston

You’ll be living in the ‘burbs and commuting an hour to work. Boston is a great city and has everything you need though.. so might still be a good move

I know plenty of people who can make it work under $200k in north Boston. You just won’t be IN Boston. And your house won’t look like the house you had in Texas. If you set your (and spouse) expectations accordingly, you can make it work until spouse gets a job. MA really is a great place to have a family and raise kids. If it didn’t work out, you can apply at one of the 1000s of other companies here

What equity did they offer? And what is the title/level? So many variables here

They are deciding on it. I will share once I get.
I asked for a %share in the company instead of shares as they gets diluted

Off topic but what’s your current base in Frisco? Considering moving there with a family of 4.

That sounds pretty comfortable in Frisco especially with no state income tax. Also sounds like it’s quite risky to move your family out to Boston for lower comp with questionable equity.

I was once at a dinner with a second year analyst, consultant, and partner, and the analyst said he planned on retiring by 30 and the partner and consultant laughed. Little did they know, the analyst owned his own home and rented all the rooms out so he payed no rent, never ate out, only grocery shopped, and very very rarely bought anything new. He saved most of his income, and was perfectly content with just his video games. That man was serious about not being stuck working forever.
