[quote=Anonymous]Just a minor point - he should be able to go into the government at the top of the scale if he's been out that long, depending on the agency. Not remotely near $350, but $155k or higher for DC locality pay depending on agency (thinking of SEC). Every penny counts when you make such an income drop! I left my big law firm voluntarily and took the 50% pay cut to take my government job (which I love but it was competitive - over 400 applications when I applied back in 2010). It was hard, but I too was a huge saver so I was able to manage and realize I would not be saving as much going forward. Sympathies for your husband. This must be very hard for him.[/quote]
