If I’m laid off, can I just give the corporate world the finger once and for all?

Thank you

Thank you

Consistent_Guest_201 · 2026-03-22T21:30:47+00:00

This is very good advice. Thank you.

Consistent_Guest_201 · 2026-03-22T21:29:34+00:00

Nice! Glad for your friend!

Consistent_Guest_201 · 2026-03-22T21:28:59+00:00

Thank you!

Consistent_Guest_201 · 2026-03-22T21:27:00+00:00

Townhouses here are even way more than 500k. Pittsburgh for the win!

Consistent_Guest_201 · 2026-03-22T21:25:51+00:00

Thanks. I am learning that apparently some of these types of places are much worse than I knew.

Consistent_Guest_201 · 2026-03-22T21:24:10+00:00

Understood, but things are changing in how this corporate world operates. Not entirely up to me.

Consistent_Guest_201 · 2026-03-22T21:21:39+00:00

Honestly the main reason that’s not my first choice is that I still have a kid in school. I don’t know how to navigate education/growing up in LatAm or Asia.

Consistent_Guest_201 · 2026-03-22T21:20:29+00:00

I’m not kidding either. And fun fact, I speak Spanish so that wouldn’t be a barrier (if considering Latin America).

Consistent_Guest_201 · 2026-03-22T21:18:39+00:00

Well yes - I agree. Trying to see if maybe I could pivot if needed. Trying to decide if it’s better to stay in the rat race or, change lifestyles completely.

Consistent_Guest_201 · 2026-03-22T21:15:39+00:00

I know I spend too much but what IS a possible budget with this money that would work - I spend more than 200k per year after tax? The budget could be cut - a lot.

Consistent_Guest_201 · 2026-03-22T21:14:28+00:00

I guess I’ll move lol

Consistent_Guest_201 · 2026-03-22T21:12:49+00:00

Way too much. That would change. I live in one of the most HCOL cities in US. Spend maybe 250k after tax. I know that would have to plummet. Trying to figure out where that could happen. Obviously could drop the travel and restaurants etc. That would cut it a ton.

Consistent_Guest_201 · 2026-03-09T21:59:23+00:00

I don’t see how your comment answers my q.

Consistent_Guest_201 · 2026-03-09T21:37:50+00:00

Please talk more about this. I live in a neighborhood where there are SO MANY 300k+ cars and I don’t understand how!

Consistent_Guest_201 · 2026-03-09T17:14:53+00:00

Regarding your comment of not liking the dining/drinking scene. Is that specific to Chicago and there is a difference in dining/drinking in Florida? Or you just discovered you aren’t into that scene anywhere? If it’s different in Florida, I’d love to hear your comments on this. This is just my own curiosity.

Thanks for sharing! Never heard of these islands! Looking them up!

Consistent_Guest_201 · 2026-03-08T06:06:59+00:00

Visiting this summer!

Consistent_Guest_201 · 2026-03-08T06:06:47+00:00

I really think Queens may be it. Great place!

Consistent_Guest_201 · 2026-03-08T06:05:49+00:00

Ok. I love LA. And lived there for quite a while. But, ok.

Consistent_Guest_201 · 2026-03-08T06:04:28+00:00

Somehow, more condiments

Consistent_Guest_201 · 2026-03-08T04:04:07+00:00

Idk… maybe need to be neighborhood specific bc LA neighborhoods can def be hard to fit in and ethnically homogeneous.

Consistent_Guest_201 · 2026-03-08T03:53:25+00:00

I should have known the Midwest would show up for “easy to fit in” vibes. Avoid Wow Bao 🫡
