To Be… or Not To Be
As I walked around the city yesterday I thought of making a career change… and how much I wanted be in the city. It’s a dream that’s not too far from reality but I’d have to choose a career that will pay the bills right off the bat. A career that provides the amenities that you find in Jersey… such as a parking space that protects your car from being hit from all sides… eh duro…
Amoungst the jobs I thought of… Wall Street Broker, Accountant, Mathematician, or a Computer Engineer… hmm… sounds like the preppy class if anything… graduates from Harvard, Yale or MIT… Now adays a good job is a job that has a salary of $100k+… In order for you to afford the things you want and need… seriously… Morgage alone on a $350k home is over $2k a month! You certainly can’t pay that on a $60k or $70k salary and be able to afford a car note, insurance, food, and all of the other little things that make you happy such as vacations… hmmm… it’s the truth… you’d have to be a slave to pay your mortgage for the next 5 years living from paycheck to paycheck without a break other then your tax return… and that’s not funny…
