$3-$3.5K prob? But depends on how much that TC is base vs bonus/RSUs.

I’d do at least $3k. $2500 is gonna be slim pickings in that area and you’ll probably be at risk of not having parking or communal laundry unless you find a diamond in the rough

Lol and here I am dropping 5K on rent lol

funny

Yeah just the reference to 5K, shit is just expensive nowadays lol.

No more than $2,700. Absolute max.

Damn, that’s what my partner and I pay in Westwood w/ TC (combined) of $140k

Debt-free at 250K is a good place to be. I would be looking to buy, and if I don’t have the down payment saved up, I’d be living with the cheapest rent I could tolerate in order to save up.

I’m helping my GF with excel and need help lol. She works at a hospital and is trying to make an excel schedule for doctors to reserve rooms. She wants drop downs for days of the week (column K) and also different drop down menus in column P for the reserved time slots.

Is it possible to do this with two sets of drop downs (days of week + time slots) and not use index match here? She could make 5 tables for each day of the week, but prefers one table that can be easily navigated by doctors.
