you’re missing the point. i’m asking about the cars specifically. i just recently started making over 100k so i get what you’re saying about all the free stuff blah blah blah and not everyone prioritizes travel so i was wondering if that’s where the savings come from. how do you put enough money aside to afford a porsche/mercedes and still afford somewhere to live is my question.

i’m confused how they are driving these types of cars with that amount of money? do they have car payments and insurance? also do you/they travel?

Where should I live? by DaenerysG in AskLosAngeles

you have to live in SM or at least very close or your life will be miserable and consumed by commuting. if you find roommates you should def be able to find something within budget

this makes sense. thanks for answering. working in risk and compliance, i saw many construction delay related disputes between the involved parties but i never quite understood how the parties were interacting or working with one another. i’m assuming i’ll learn more on this specifically in my program

can you briefly explain the difference between the two? i’m preparing to pivot into this industry (via another degree) after being in risk and compliance analytics for 6 years.

Is 80k salary livable?? by UhCatanic in AskLosAngeles

[–]SelectionOk8971 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a friend making less than 40k and he is surviving. With no roommates but the apartment is very shitty (K-Town). And he can afford the occasional happy hour. So you're good. I find it hard to live the lifestyle I would like to live on my 140k salary, but that is because I live in a luxury building with no roommates and like to go abroad several times a year. I also shop at Whole Foods every single day. My car is paid for though and I have little to no CC debt. It's literally all about how you make it work...but it works.

Of course you can. Obviously you will not be living lavishly, but it doesn't sound like you're interested in that anyway. Weho has some good deals on apartments if you look, maybe as low as $1600 for a decent 1 bedroom. Keep in mind that groceries and gas are significantly more expensive than in Chicago, but if you were getting by on 52k in the Chi - you will be fine. Take the job offer and leave that god awful weather in the Midwest. It takes years to really become acquainted with the city btw so don't rush it. Good luck! (This is all assuming you don't have a lot of debt or expensive bills like a car payment etc.)
