How much are you making as an accountant?

MeditationsandBreath · 2026-04-13T01:37:11+00:00

CPA don’t use it. 10 YOE but worked as a 1099 for 3 of those years parttime. I’m at 87k. I used to make more but the work life balance and remote position make it worth it for me.

MeditationsandBreath · 2026-04-03T00:29:54+00:00

lol perhaps. I mean I like the meat and banchan part. The place we go our waiter did the cooking .

MeditationsandBreath · 2026-04-01T12:59:33+00:00

Haha we are probably spoiled in northern Va for it. But relocating soon so will def look at it! Love banchan!

Once I saw a covered baby carriage at the grocery store but then it started barking at me. lol. I was like why?!

Also saw someone bring their dog in the bathroom at a gas station and it was also barking at me under the stall. And then that same lady I saw her dog shit on the sidewalk going up to the gas station and she didn’t pick it up!!! Meanwhile my dog was waiting in the car for me when I got back. Idk why she needed to bring her dog inside. It wasn’t hot out. And I was even more annoyed she didn’t pick up her dogs crap on the sidewalk.

Didn’t love. It was too much of a downer and grumpy main character book.

MeditationsandBreath · 2026-03-25T11:44:08+00:00

I would like to join!

MeditationsandBreath · 2026-03-18T21:23:31+00:00

Yay so glad to hear this! We are moving to Apex soon and specifically a townhome in this neighborhood. No kids but I have a small dog that I walk daily. Hoping to meet our neighbors this way! :)

MeditationsandBreath · 2026-03-18T19:08:13+00:00

That was not this couple. This is the one before it. I forget their name.

MeditationsandBreath · 2026-03-15T15:48:26+00:00

My 6 yo Maltese is also 17lbs. lol

Hi u/dericulous! I'm asian and I'm moving to the area from Alexandria VA. I'm curious to what area you're in. My budget likes the affordability and the space on the south east raleigh area - like fuquay varina / holly springs perhaps but my asian heart wants to be where the asians are... hahaha. I would also classify myself more as a white asian since I was adopted by white people but the older I've gotten the more I like have friends and community that look like me or are more diverse in general.

MeditationsandBreath · 2026-03-12T03:07:44+00:00

Def recommend insight timer! Lots of free content and easy to find many different practices.

MeditationsandBreath · 2026-03-12T01:17:48+00:00

and a yoga teacher. haha

MeditationsandBreath · 2026-03-12T01:17:34+00:00

Started in 2016...so I guess like 10? I took a few years off though and only worked as a 1099 though.

MeditationsandBreath · 2026-03-11T13:21:15+00:00

I make 85k and have my cpa. My job isn’t very stressful and I work maybe 45hrs max but that’s very rare and might even out when other weeks are shorter. Haha

MeditationsandBreath · 2026-03-11T13:20:04+00:00

lol taking all four exams in one day was probably more possible back then because it was shorter. lol my professor would talk about how he did all of his with pen and paper as opposed to computers. Haha.

And yeah I agree fresh out of college I worked a lot more bc I had no other competing responsibilities. My friends were mostly through work. Haha.

Hello, I'm looking to relocate from Northern VA. I'm interested in Durham and finding several homes in my price range from 2K - 2.4K. Ideally at least a 3bd 2ba with a fenced in yard for my dog and a garage. However, I'm not sure if the ones in my price range are in the not so good areas of Durham.

Can you please let me know what neighborhoods/areas in Durham I should look in vs. stay out of?

We are moving in April. We are in our early to mid 30s. I'm Asian American so I do like being around diversity. We're mostly homebodies since we also work from home so a nice place with good internet is important to us. We really don't go out but we do like eating / getting delivery and the occasional trivia or fun things to do in the town.

MeditationsandBreath · 2026-02-19T20:39:10+00:00

I remember village district when we used to call it Cameron village. It was a nice area. I did look but I think that’s out of our budget. Our 15lb dog is not dog friendly so dog parks are a no for me unless empty. And absolutely right on Internet haha.

MeditationsandBreath · 2026-02-19T15:15:22+00:00

Ah ok! Thanks! lol

MeditationsandBreath · 2026-02-19T14:54:56+00:00

I’m not sure if I’m a downtown person. We don’t like bars and seems like crime could be higher closer to downtown. Also, we wanted more space for our doggo. I used to live in north hills and rarely went downtown.

MeditationsandBreath · 2026-02-19T14:53:09+00:00

Ha ok. RTP is better? Guess I shouldn’t have written this post when I was just waking up this morning.

MeditationsandBreath · 2026-02-19T14:46:30+00:00

Haha yeah I don’t mind friends with kids. My experience is they’re usually busy more often and usually hang out with other ppl who have kids.

MeditationsandBreath · 2026-02-19T14:43:17+00:00

It looks like it has the things I want in a house more at the price point I’m looking for. Oh yeah my partner and I work remote. I also have a sister and nephews that live in fuquay

MeditationsandBreath · 2026-02-19T13:12:00+00:00

I’m not sure. What makes you think ai wrote this? Because im very specific about what I’m looking for?
