साथीहरुको कुराले त म झन् हतास भए, संफ्रंसिस्कोमा " राम्रै गरि " नट " एकदम राम्रो गरि " बस्न ४००K -500K नै चाहिन हो र ? येत्रो पैसा कहाँ बाट ल्याउनु यार ? ठ्याक्कै भन्दै मेरो ऐलेको जब अफर १७० k को हो , अलि अलि contract negotiation गर्यो भने ५-१० % माथि जान्छ कि भन्ने आशा छ तर ग्यारेन्टी छैन । फेरी यो रेट २ वर्ष लाइ लक् हुन्छ तेस्पछि मात्र मेरो base pay २२० k हुन्छ भेनेर लेखेको छ । मेरी स्वास्नीले काम गरि भने पनि ४० ४५ K भन्दा माथि ल्याउने छाँट गाँठ छैन । त्यो पनि ऐले covid को बेला घरै बसी बसी IT (QA BA ) येस्तै ज्याला दारी काम गरेर मात्र हो । WFH सकिए पछि तेती जाबो पैसोको लागि बाल बच्चा भएकी आइमाई लाइ ज्यालादारी काम गर्न आफ्नो घर भन्दा पर पठाउने कुरो पनि भएन । आफु थोत्रो गाडी र पुरानो जुत्ता भिरेर हिडे पनि परिवार लाइ बिगत ५ वर्ष देखि ठिकैको जिन्दगि दिएको छु , अब त्यो ठिकैको जिन्दगि बाट तल खस्किन दिनु पनि भएन , ३००० को २ bedroom मा लगेर थन्क्याउनु पनि भएन । समस्या यहाँ निर छ ।

Yes , I have a very labour/ lab intensive job so spending 4 days dawn 2 dusk in lab . I dont have luxury wfh job , tks I'm considering santa Roja , have heard there are some decent working class nepali people , for some reason I have to run away from show-off nepali people because I simply cant compete.

I was reading through all posts here. I live in a cheaper state, in the south, where you could buy a nice house for 350-400K. I have done few real estates and I think I grossed around 170K. I don’t give a fuck about showy off Nepali. Btw I drive a 10 years old car that I have bought for 2500. I don’t hang around with Nepalese who have to drive Lexus or live a nice house, but could barely afford their mortgage. I ain’t doing it. Also you need to learn to disassociate with them. There are idiots everywhere

Same here , I live in cheaper side of expensive state . My needs are limited , ride old camry and love to do experiments on it n spend most of my time in labs . But my wife is opposite, she loves being social , recently bought expensive car which is fine as long as she pays . She is amazing but easily gets into show off business . Goal is to keep her away from such nepali peps .

Santa Rosa is not Sanfransisco bro. You should be good there with 200K.
