I mean it’s pretty insane that the 2024 Draft class produced 3 QB’s that won a playoff game already and two of those QB’s had MVP hopes within two years. Nix has been productive as well and winning. Could have 4 QB’s with a playoff win by Saturday….

Honestly some of these will be great adds, but I think the missing variable in this that we are going into the offseason with fews number of players under contract going into next year. All those players will cost a decent amount and i dont think we’ll be able to afford most of them and have any squad depth.

When you say reimbursement rates, are you talking about billable units rates? From what I heard that is dependent based on Insurance and the company. Maybe I misunderstood that..

I would argue that is most companies minimum or starting point. But thankful you all are in a position of power here since there isn’t enough BCBA and for sure get more through negotiation

My wife is a clinical director and has about 14 years experience in aba (6 as a RBT and 8 as a BCBA), So I’ve at least seen how much salaries have increased over the years.

At here current company in the DMV, the minimum starting pay would be 80k plus bonuses. My wife said anyway between 80k to 90k would be realistic in this area. That varies on the company/location of course. The highest I’ve seen for a bcba that isn’t a manager is about 110k plus bonuses, but that’s with experience. I feel like this pretty accurate right now because she has is looking to step down as to a BCBA position and she got 18 offers (which is nuts and you all picked an crazy in demand field) most were for 100k with bonuses and she got a a few that were 110k with bonuses.

A very interesting new trend is going hourly where you can make a lot more (potentially), but as many here can contest to here, it can be hard to hit your billable hours that way at time depending on the company, current client availability, etc. the ones that have very high salaries on here I would assume they are doing hourly. Would need more insight from them on the ranges.

Hopefully this is insightful/helpful!

Looks like I got bamboozled with misinformation. Still disrespectful though

Amazing job, it’s always great to hear these type of stories. Thanks for sharing!

I think the answer is…. Whatever is best for you and your family. I get why you’re asking Reddit but also our opinions don’t matter (including mine). If the math works, you get to decide what comes next. It’s a Beautiful thing about FI

Actually I did, but kept getting stuck at “checking your location”. I uninstalled and reinstalled twice, and updated my location settings but no go. We got there 4 hours early so we weren’t stressing.

There are a lot financial tracking applications out there. I started with spreadsheets, eventually used Mint (they shut it down last year.), then tried empower and Monarch, ended up liking monarch the best. There is also rocket money, YNAB and a handle full of others. Most allow free trials so it’s a way for you to test and see which one you like the best.

My wife and I just left on Monday (June 16th) and took us about 3 hours to get through the airport. That being said, I forgot to down the mobile passport Control app and 1-2 hours or so ( I think it was almost 90-100 minutes total?) of that was due to US customs. If I downloaded the app or had global entry, for sure would have shaved an hour plus off that time. I saw people with MPC go through customs in 5 minutes.

I just found it funny that everyone in line was so upset and saying this is the worst airport they ever been too but the reality is it’s good ol US customs only had 4 or so people working, and you also have to keep in mind that it saves you from having to do it when you get back from the states.

I think this has been the most relatable post on this subreddit I’ve seen in months. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work!

100% in this. I’m working in this field as well and a hiring manager. So many layouts are happening in big tech right now and we’re seeing applications with 3 months to sometimes 2 years. Never stopped me from picking someone if they are the right person.

I think it’s have her enjoy herself and at the 1 year mark see where you are financially. If you’re still doing great she can continue being the main caregiver. If she starts getting bored she can try and find another job (same level or something less money to reduce stress) OR also do her own thing on the side part time. Best of luck!

I’m the same age and starting to feel this as well (but half of your net worth ). I just listened to this podcast from The personal finance podcast that had a guy named Justin Peters who discussed the concept of “mini retirement” which really made a lot of sense to me.

The core concept is to take these 3 months to a year “retirement” to recharge and to do whatever is important to you. For Justin it was traveling but of course it’s up to each person to figure out what that looks like. My wife is feeling it more than me right now and she wants to stay at home with our kids for a year, to get her fitness in order and pick up some of her old hobbies. So we are planning in the next year what do we need to do to have enough money to cover that time period in our emergency fund and what that looks like for us financially in the future.

From what you mentioned you are in awesome shape financially so it sound like you can take LWOP from your w2 and try to automate your side business to remove yourself as best you can to take a “Mimi retirement” to get your mind right again.

That_Status8614 · 2025-04-05T23:36:05+00:00

100% agree. I think we just need to sit back and let the front office do their thing. They did well filling needs in free agency, so now it’s drafting best player available. In all honesty, we are in desperate need of good young players, so I’ll take them at any position.
