Yeah, I know our situations are different, and I wouldn't take financial advice from me necessarily. LOL. I see my salary and it looks so high! In my own defense, housing in DC averages 40% higher than Chicago, taxes are higher, and I pay $1600 a month toward debt. :/ (mine, including education loans and those I stupidly cosigned) If you adjust for those things I "make" $35K a year in Chicago terms. I have considered going back but it's so COLD.
You seem to have gotten a much better grounding earlier in life about money, so I imagine you will be weather this just fine :)
