Let me know where you can afford to live on 64k a year in DC.
well get your point on that
but think if you didn't spend $100 a week on good beer
and travel is a part...so I could only imagine that you'd be visiting breweries all over the country on the SI dime

So I agree one could not live (and raise a family) in dc on that salary alone, but say your SO had a good 6 figure job...that'd be adequate

but be a buzz kill



DOOOD... I still think it's a cool job, just not feasible unless.... you have a trust fund, live in a group house, or Nebraska... or maybe you're under 25 with no dependents... or live 80 miles west of DC.

Are you telling me the people who clean my office or the people who work at the Walmart down the street from my office, some of whom I'm sure have families, make 64K a year?

There are entire swaths of the country on which 64k a year for a single person is -- while not wealthy by any means -- good money you can buy a house and a new car and put cash away for retirement on. In fact, I'd say places where that is not the case are really the exception, not the rule.

Absolutely, and I wish I lived in one of those places.

I'm pretty sure you can go to any of those places for dinner and drinks with your kids.
