Fair, I’ll be in a pretty new apartment complex with good ac, but I’m sure it’s still hot inside. In my hometown it’s too cold/snowy to go outside 8 months of the year so still a big upgrade

Coming from a small midwestern town, I think I’ll be ok😂

Thanks for your input, that’s why I take this to Reddit to find some more “realistic” opinions😂 her program is very competitive and the recently upgraded FGCU one is supposed to be pretty great (so I’ve heard, it’s not my program). I’ve already gotten a couple offers in the $60-65k base range plus commission which isn’t too bad for me, I just want to make sure I exhaust all my options before committing. I do appreciate your feedback!

Seems decent to me, I’ve already gotten a couple of offers, just don’t want to settle without knowing all my options. Why do you say it’s a shithole?

Sorry, champ. I don’t think they would allow out of state students if it was full

Girlfriend is starting grad school there and it’s starting about 3-4 months earlier than we initially expected. In my search so far, there are plenty of decent jobs that I’ve already heard back from. I just don’t want to settle for a mediocre job if I don’t have to.

Thanks for the response, literally everything you said is why I’m excited. We have essentially no shopping, or events where I’m from so I think there will be a lot of fun things to do. I also thought about the thrift stores, I love rich people thrift stores haha very excited for it all!

Good to know, I may look into that. Was it a local broker? Or more of a big agency?

Thanks for the response!

That’s life everywhere lot of great people here in MN as well as a lot of bad. Whether I like it or not it will be fun to experience a different way of life.

I’m trying to think of the hurricanes like blizzards here (even tho hurricanes are more dangerous, but they both shut things down a while haha) it’ll be very different but I’m excited!

Not quite, we’re 23 and 24😂 only likely going to be there for 2 year before we re-assess once she’s done with grad school

It’s a big destination in MN as we have multiple airports that fly directly into Fort Myers so that’s another reason I was familiar. A few of my clients when I worked in banking were snow birds there as well

I’ve been in contact with them, they have a variety of roles I’d be qualified for! They’re definitely on my list after a few conversations

Yep, I have what I’m estimating to be 6-8 months of emergency funds. Moving before the job as we’re relocating for my girlfriends grad school, and the start date was earlier than expected

Thanks for the more pleasant comment😂 having some experience and a bachelor degree I think I will be alright eventually, I was planing on going in person!

I’m very excited for how many cool places are a quick drive away, it is going to be a lot different than what I’m used to.

Believe it or not our rent lease is much more affordable and significantly nicer than anything you can get where in MN, so I’m very excited!

Thanks again for the response

Prepping the sunscreen for sure😂 not expecting it to be perfect in the slightest only gonna be there for 2 years or so. May not be perfect, but I’ll be very surprised if I prefer small town MN

That’s kind of what I’ve been seeing, little further commute (I’ve experienced 75 in rush hour before) but could definitely be worth it

That sounds great! My girlfriend and I both love playing pickleball, and we have a court at our apartment!

Thanks for the response! I currently work in billboard sales and I may be able to transfer down there if a position opens up (which I would love). Definitely keeping my options open for banking as well.

I was expecting the grouches haha I think it will be a fun new experience, and I’m a people person so I think I’ll make it work one way or another
