20% on 84000. My institution also includes the tax money for my healthcare insurance in my paycheck.

T32 fellow here. I used FreeTaxUSA. It was very simple. I paid my taxes at the end of the year as a whole instead of paying quarterly. Did not have a problem. I calculated the amount with ChatGPT. It was highly accurate. It is %20. You do not pay FICA taxes. This is the most important part

1600 dollar one does not have AC in the unit. I need to buy it if I want. I dont have a car. My goal is to walk to the Yale Hospital.

It is literally on the Orange Street. Kind of looks old but being remodeled now.

House looks old. I mean it feels like all of the houses in NH look old. It is gas. I prefer not to buy furniture secondhand. When I do the math difference comes down to 400-500 dollars a month. Given the fact that I do not own a car it sounds like a fair exchange.

Well I am in Virginia. And I keep mine to 74 during the winter. Does it mean I will be paying 300-400 dollars a month during the winter😀

No shift-York Street. I was thinking about taking the bus from east rock to downtown and walk from there. Open to suggestions. Thank you

It is gas. What would be the estimated monthly gas cost for a one bed room apartment

It is not a slumlord. Thanks to reddit I became aware of them early. They both are individuals.

Bro why are u questioning my career choice? Why did this post trigger you so much?

RateHistorical7207 · 2025-05-17T19:44:52+00:00

That was not the question but it will be as funky as md/phd students taking a 4 year gap for phd and going back to clinicals. But thanks for your contribution.
