I hope you’re not talking about living in SV or SF with those numbers. Anything less than $120K salary out here usually means roommates, which, unless you are very good at figuring out good ones from bad ones, can lead to severe work performance issues due to lack of sleep from incompatible habits and schedules.
- marssaxman 8y agoSeattle, actually. It's not so much the specific numbers I was talking about - that's just the range which works for me - but the idea that more money can be less valuable, because the time and energy cost of acquiring the money diminishes your ability to make use of it. I have typically chosen to live with housemates regardless of salary, because otherwise home just feels sort of empty and dead, and it's a lot of work trying to organize all one's own social hosting single-handed.
