[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of them are heading south to the SEC these days. Amazing college experience and amazing outcomes.[/quote]

Amazing outcomes where? Do they have to stay in the south or can they have amazing outcomes in NYC, DC or Boston after college in the SEC?[/quote]

Most of them stay in the South by choice. They could get jobs in NYC, DC, or Boston, but why would they want to? Sure, their $250k salary in NYC might only be $170k in Jacksonville, Greenville, or Mobile, but for the same money they'd be spending each month to live in a shoebox flat in Manhattan and ride the subway to work, they can have a 3,000 square foot house with a manicured lawn and drive a Bimmer. Around the same time their NYC counterparts are starting to feel financially secure enough to upgrade to a SFH (or more realistically a townhouse/condo) in Weehawken or Westchester County, the SEC bro is looking to close on a vacation beach house on 30A. They also enjoy better weather, work/life balance, and women. The world doesn't revolve around the Acela corridor.[/quote]

Greenville, SC?! Great place to raise kids! Thriving downtown arts scene, pretty decent symphony, and two of the best steakhouses in the state. By the time you're 35 you have your kids in the local christian academy and a nice little place down in Hilton Head, within walking distance of Bubba's Burgers and Fried Seafood. Who wants to live in crummy, overpriced NYC, with all the rats? Send your kids to Dalton and Brown, mine will be doing kegstands at Clemson and then transition into that cozy insurance gig we've got lined up for him. Boats, jet skis, big trucks, 42 oz steaks: all day, every day. [/quote]
