    After taxes, a $125,000 salary probably won't allow you to get that $3,200/mo rent and still feel comfortable after. You'll probably want to scale back the rent considerably, or aim for $175K or so.

    • Consider benefits too. Most places are scaling back vaca, health, dental, 401k contributions, pre tax commuter benefits, etc.whatthefunk
    • I will not discuss salary with a place until I know exactly what their benefits are too, I've seen it vary so much and I believe that impacts base imho...whatthefunk
