[quote=Anonymous]I graduated from college in 1988. I worked on the Hill. My first job paid ($35,000 in today's dollars) and had a weekend job working at a men's clothing store that brought in extra money. I had a room in a group house with one other guy and two women. I paid $650 per month (about $1300 in today's dollars). It was a great time, socially and I did like the work. Eventually, I left for "bigger and better things." Flash forward now thirty years and I have a job paying six figures, I'm happy, married with kids and generally satisfied with my life. I was not from DC, but if my daughter wanted to follow the same path, she would be welcome to live at home. My work requires me to be overseas, so she would be welcome to rent out the other bedrooms in the house, as long as there is a place for me when I am home. [/quote]
