35% pre tax/health insurance/401k contrition.

After food and everything I basically have zero leftover.

I live alone in nyc. I’m 38 and just can’t imagine having a roommate at this point.

Luckily I have a side gig that earns around $30,000/year so I use that for savings and extras.

Even with that, I’m paying too much in rent.

18% - I live in NYC with two roommates in Williamsburg. The place I live in is older and not super updated, but very spacious and we have a patio. It’s a great deal for location and space

I use 1/3 of my apartment for my home office, so I pay 1/3 of my rent from my business account, and the rest from personal.

Hi all, negotiating with HR on salary for a new AS position and want to know what’s fair. I was an AE for two years, took a promotion at another agency for SAE for only 8 months and am now being recruited for AS at 80k. All of my agencies have been large, I’ve worked on pharma and a large global account, I also started “managing” at the AE level due to my team’s structure. Is $80k fair? Thanks!

Hi all, I’m looking to learn about how one can transition from PwC AC to PwC India.
I joined PwC AC Bangalore as a fresher and have been working here for 13 months.
I was randomly assigned to SAP, but I’ve realised I really want to move away from this and move towards what I originally planned on pursuing i.e. data analysis, I was already well versed in ML and DL with python.
If anyone has made a similar transition, it would be great if you could help me understand how do I go about this.

This past week I got an envelope hand delivered to me by a student I do not teach. In it was a trans pin she had bought for me, as well as a drawing and a letter of thanks.

Again, this is not my student, but I think this speaks to the power of visibility. Students need to know we are members of society. All I did was wear my own trans pin and “love is love” pin on my lanyard, and my trans flag mask (occasionally).

But for that student it was enough.

The revival of US soft power is I think sorely missed on the global stage - however it’s interesting to wonder how effective it’ll be in a post US hegemon world vis a vis China in Asia pacific . https://foreignpolicy.com/2021/01/15/biden-china-asia-allies-strategy-pivot/ I thought this was an incredibly cogent summary of the issues - especially around economic interconnectedness and its relation to the expression of influence in the region. Any takers on where this is going? Taiwan looms pretty large these days.
