i dmed you bud and you didnt answer

dang was hoping for more happier and excited words but oki

“okay” will have to do 😅

worst part is i know ppl who dont make as much as what im offered :,( based on my old min wage job

jeez and 100k is only 5k take home last i checked (after income tax and thats not including state and federal tax) hope everything is well with your SO job and kids overall

appreciate it ty

💀

nah for job x not so much just want to know in the opinion of others if they had that salary, is it good in new jersey? thats all

damn what salary is enough then?

dmed you

bruh can you give a number or range

shit its confirmedthen... this is what i dreaded

u didnt hear this from me but working as a GM at a certain office supplies store gets you that

and no thats not my industry or job position tyvm

yep i know ive seen it happen to a few too guess only time will tell ofc theres still nyc but ill have to keep up to find out financially how much longer it can remain lucrative there

and yep thats exactly what im trying to avoid i want to survive but be paid fairly for what i do cause for all introverts, the lowballed and tricked, my family , and for myself who gave immense effort mentally and emotionally to go throeugh winning not for some shit salary but one that truly exemplifies my lifes work throughout many years

i feel its somewhat sensitive dont want that to be googleable by specific ppl ofc

yea me too i just like hearing the thoughts and inouts for the chance that someone may cover ground i have not considered to tread on this comment section is filled with good input imo

especially with new grads and the economy and looming politics money talk is more important than ever especially in deciding if you truly to chance a family or ingrained living here cause if economy colapses in nj well lets just say i think itll be as bad as the empty midwest in america

well what is a good salary in your opinion thx for the input btw

sad thing is i like it here i love being next to nyc and the attractions especially lincoln square imax thanks to alist i go there basically every other weekend for free with my ezpass covered by parents(i dont abuse it btw i drive toll free for work)

this place of an armpit is home and ofc life is uncertain but hopefully i can make it or survive elsewhere before life is extinct from this place due to poverty

@largead if you see this not sure if u got banneed or blcoked but this goes for everyone again my opinion dont kill plz

i believe like my father in hard work and if you stagnate or perform like everyone else well you basically leave it to chance/equal treatment to massive amts of ppl which means more things will affect you basically i need to reach for higher not for greed but to survive against inflation, costs, competition, and retirement

economically that is my sentiment on the matter i know there will be ppl that make more but if i can just work harder to survive without letting my family down and to support them too thats all i need

ty for clearing up my brain yea i do and i notice this from the change too deep respect from the clerk pre judging me on looks to calling me sir and hand hold guiding me to tellers one on one

according to nj nah ppl here making more than me and lots of grads from my uni working bigger name companies its tough as heck

and i think u can guess which uni in jersey im talking abt

also did the math 73k after taxes is around 4.2-4.6k a month iirc

oof :( and here i was breathing relief that it was good ofc im looking to move out once i marry my gf or move out to live with her here

damn how can that be eesh 5k a month is NOT luxury at all and the work to get up there is kinda bigfrom 73k/76k

my dad saying to contribute 25% to 401k

follow up but i want take home to be 5k a month some calculators say i need 84k or 42$/hr to get that

but my math says i need a tiny bit over 76k

What do you think?

and whats the likelihood ill get that? im probably going to over shoot slightly to contest it but i dont know how much either.

th is an offer i got (kinda want to be above median in jersey but thats also all over the place)
