The Moz 69 Posted October 15, 2010 Of the several job offers I now actually have after like 2 months of nothing ( other than workin for the Arabs of course ) one is in Boston. It is quite a step down in salary but Boston is where the wife has always wanted to live ( likely to be closer to you ) . I know the cost of living in Boston is high so will 90K a year to start be liveable in Boston? Or would I too need to make a 2 hr each way commute every day like you do? Other place's is Kansas City and I still have kept Qatar on the table and still talking with them. Qatar is the most money but would be away from family 2 weeks at a time -- leaving plenty of time for you guys to pay her visits . Anyway everyone is telling me not to take it but the money is very good oh well ... Might be praying 5 times a day soon.... No Its just something I am holding onto just in case as several things have fallen through the last few months I don't want to burn any bridges. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is their any place within 50 miles of Boston that has homes that were at least built 1990 or newer?

famousb 11 Posted October 22, 2010 my first job offer coming out of grad school was in Waltham, MA for like 60k - that was over 10 years ago - and I decided then I couldn't live comfortably in that area for that much and took a job in Raleigh, NC for 40k instead... one other thing to remember about MA Moz, it's focking cold!
