Then it's dependent on your personal preference (savings, contributions, other spending) and where you want to live.

So you don’t see a correlation between higher income and higher rent / higher mortgage. Got it

VPs should be paying mortgage not rent

smart

VP5, stop making us VPs look like idiots. Plenty of reasons to pay rent instead of mortgage as a VP.

Think it’s complicated, due to the fact many VPs are married / cohabiting, but if I were going solo would say ~$5k / month is pretty par for the course. Most of the mid-level Associates at my firm pay between $3-4K/month for rent

That’s soooo crazy how do y’all live! First yr associate tlkn here i pay 1300

Highly dependent upon the city you live in. I pay $3,600 (NYC) and it’s hard for me to stomach that.

Ouch

I spend like $3,300 but I’m on the low end

I spend $1800 for my half of a three story brownstone, one roommate, but that’s out in the Stuy the hood

Brooklyn and north of 8k here, but wife works (similar title) and we have kids. Rent should be correlated with what you need not title. I know VPs paying 2k for a studio (no kids, no wife, no problems)

Hey friends. My wife and I are looking to start investing in the market outside of our 401ks, hsa etc. We opened a Charles Schwab brokerage account and planning to transfer 2-3k/mo.

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

For any of you real estate investors, what tools or sources did you learn from when getting started. Can’t find a mentor currently so want to find some highly recommended books or videos. If focused on the tri-state area (NY, NJ, Long Island mainly) that would be even better. My hope is to buy and rent out a apartment while also owning a house and house hacking that by renting part of it out. Trying to understand all the steps, traps, and how to find if it’s a good investment.
