Reply to Worcester icon Table Talk Pies perseveres through challenging times, prepares to celebrate 100 years in business by HRJafael
We just moved to Worcester and though I have little interest in these pies, my father-in-law keeps asking if we’ve seen the place yet.

My household income out of college was 115k. We bought a house 3 months later in Springfield. Both of us work in the valley. You don't need to live near Boston to make good money. This was done in 2022.
We had no help from family or friends.

I totally get it, and feel free to look into users you think may be doing that. But this is all very "out there". I'd like actual proof, though. And since this conversation is happening in view of others, they need it as well.
I've had nearly this exact conversation about three times now and it's never gone further than this point. Anglish doesn't exist outside these limited websites. We don't meet in person. "Real life" isn't an excuse not to show proof. I just really want that proof.

Exactly my thought process. My mom moved to Florida recently. I thought about doing the same, but what would be the point? We’ll have year-round warmth here in my lifetime.

Seriously. We’ve known this was going to happen. Now we have to listen to everyone and their brother act surprised.

I'm a millennial and make almost exactly half of that.

I didn’t mean to say they’re in the sub. What I meant was that Anglish has been latched onto by white supremacists in real life. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

I've been considering buying in Northampton or Easthampton but I'm really nervous about the long term prospect of remote work. I work in tech and did just switch jobs to remote with occasional (once or twice a month) sites in Boston. I do wonder if it will last though. Like at Future companies.

Not quite, even with 10-20% down if you’re willing to have roommates then it works out strongly in your favor versus continuing to rent.

Millennials are 27-42.
Every teacher I know started around 22. But I mostly know teachers who went to BC and local schools and am not as familiar with folks who transitioned into teaching at age 40.
So yes - there are a whole shit ton of 15-20 year teachers in the millennial age range. I wasn’t referring to 65 year olds but I can see how you might read it that way.
And maybe you missed the “early” in the retiree part.
Boston has a stunning amount of folks who made a lot of money in tech and finance (or who have family wealth) and who leave full-time work in their 30’s / 40’s. Especially to have kids. I saw it all the time back when I did big law. (I left full time employment at age 37).
The millennials right in the middle of this median - the ones who actually do make around $105k as a household and who are between age 27 and 42 - are a very diverse and weird mix of folks with all sorts of different economic and family circumstances in my experience. It’s really hard to lump them into one bucket and generalize.
(Two line cooks who are 40 and who make $50k each are very different than a single 27-year old renter who makes $105k at State Street. Etc…)
