[NYC area] Lease Break Stories
Those of you who’ve had to break leases before and were subjected to Landlord trying to re-rent, how long did the apartment sit vacant for? Or was it re-rented before you left?
Jersey City 1BR at 225 Grand available late September
Posting here in case anyone looking around NYC is also considering Downtown Jersey City.
I have a 1 bed / 1 bath at 225 Grand in Downtown JC becoming available around 9/25. It’s about 760 sq. ft. and the building is currently asking around $3,790/month for a 12-month lease.
Lease would be directly through building management, not a sublet. Building has a pool, gym, resident lounges, 24/7 attended lobby, etc.
I may also be able to get you a $750 referral incentive if you end up leasing it. I’m confirming the exact details on that.
Happy to send additional photos or more details over DM if anyone is interested.
CFO Advisory / Office of CFO practices
For those who have worked in CFO Advisory / Office of the CFO consulting, what does the work actually look like across firms?
Interested in hearing about the typical project mix, day-to-day responsibilities, hours, and travel. Also curious how much these practices vary between firms in terms of FP&A, finance transformation, controllership, performance improvement, and implementation work.
NYC vs Chicago Metro Salary
Would you rather make $205K base in NY metro or $170K base in Chicago metro? Why?
Note: I specifically said metro which includes suburbs. This does not assume living in Midtown manhattan.
Sterling Background Check
Anyone go through a background check with Sterling? Is their ETA accurate and based on your information or do they just throw in the same thing for everyone and push it back if the due date arrives?
NYC to Chicago Market Conversion
What would you say is a Chicago market equivalent to making $205K in NYC? The COL conversion calculators seem a little too ambitious for my comfort - it feels like they assume you spend every penny you bring in.
Wtf is good with Heights Fitness
I’m sick of it bro. The guy said upstairs was at the finish line a month ago.
VO2 Max after recent Balance 2 update
My VO2 max was always calculated around 44. Had a balance 2 update and completed a run workout, suddenly it’s 60. Now, I am actually very in cardio shape but I’m muscle bound so VO2 max has always been calculated low. Is this accurate or a bug?
Sleep data retroactively fell apart
Yesterday I slept 7 hours and all was well. Today I woke up and noticed my hybrid charge was 26, which was strange. I looked back at yesterday and for some reason the Zeppelin app changed my sleep to 2 hours, which is completely erroneous. I have two devices if that matters and only wore one to sleep. Has this happened to anyone else?
Heights Fitness Downtown
How has this first floor been closed for a full 6 months????
Any unknown benefits to wearing both a watch and the Helio strap? Also, do I need to wear both or can I just wear a watch all day and switch to strap for sleep and have the same metrics?
When is that first floor opening back up? I don’t want to keep giving my Base my money and for some reason I don’t get these emails he’s allegedly sending.
