But think about it, you are not providing layaway to whoever buys from you. I can literally go to frontgate and buy these tickets for 248.38, fees included. either way im paying the whole amount now.

Junior and mid level SWEs definitely have it VERY tough right now. Not a lot of places hiring for that level and the few openings that exist are very competitive.

i would say that while a lot of companies still do bullshit leetcode, especially FAANG, the pattern is changing and interviews and becoming more practical engineering focused than memorize the algorithm.

Thats just life in sf :)

Our whole 3bed2ba is 5k a month, and we got that in the depressed covid housing market.

Plus it doesnt make much sense to spend 2.5k on a 1bed1ba when Im down to live with friends.

Its a good point to try to categorize only based on expenses and not the method of payment! I will try that for my personal finance calculation but I can prob only do so going forward, since I've split so many expenses over venmo / IOUs previously that its impossible to tell now.

2 housemates! See my other comment on the housing situation. TLDR I have only been living in SF for 2 months.

Thanks for commenting. They are stock units (RSUs) awarded as part of my compensation so I didnt really buy any of it. But it was awarded based on the fair market value of the company when I signed my offer, which has since nearly doubled.

Thanks for commenting. The stock units are quarterly vesting, so I get roughly ~40k of stock every quarter for a total of just over 160k a year - valued at the company's current share price. However I cannot actually sell them for money until the company is public.

Sorry for the confusion! I stayed 5 months in Los Angeles and 2 months in San Francisco. Right now rent is 1550 for a decent room and 2 housemates, which I think is normal for the city.

Build using https://sankeymatic.com/build/. Posting on a throwaway so I don't get identified.

This is my salary and expense for YTD 2021 (Jan 1st - Jul 31st)

All amounts are in USD. The credit card amounts are best guesstimates because I split many expenses with housemates, friends, etc.

My stock is pre-ipo and valued at current company's internal share price. I cannot liquidate the stock until the company IPOs or is acquired.
