I’d add one other option: look outside of tech. I knew people who were hit by the dotcom bubble pretty hard but ended up getting jobs in government, academia (I left for a computational research lab myself), non-profits, and high-touch but not tech businesses (e.g. a friend bailed to a law firm - they were flush with cash but none of the partners knew how or wanted to run the IT side of things.).

That leaves you with DoD fed and contractors. For the former usajobs.gov is where you look for those but keep in mind Spain is a favorite so openings are rare, and even when they are posted they may already be filled as a contractor conversion. Nurses at Base hospital when I was there were not DoD civilians - they were military, there may have been a couple dependents. Source: 6 months ago

Like I said, minor stuff that's more style and personal opinion than anything else. If nothing else, create a usajobs.gov account and set up an alert for IT internships. They'll start putting up intern positions in the next few months (note: the hiring timeline is lengthy). Source: 6 months ago

I'm at the final stages of an application but I have one hangup and I don't know how to go about it. I'm applying through usajobs.gov. Source: 6 months ago

Moving from central Illinois. Got a job offer today for a company in Englewood. First year salary will be 85,000 (73,000+12,000 sign-on). Realistically, after taxes, I've calculated my first year take home to be ~60,000, after which (if no raises or bonuses, only riding my salary) take home will be ~55,000. Not sure on the accuracy of that, just used smartasset.com. Source: 7 months ago

That is ordinary income taxes. If it was qualified I’d pay $0 on first $81,000 I make. You can calculate taxes with smartasset.com . Federal taxes are pretty low on mere mortals. The rich really do pay their fair share. Source: 12 months ago

I use smartasset.com Good tax calculator. Assume $100,000/ yr from JEPI/JEPQ. Married filing jointly I get effective Fed rate of 8.48% with $8481. My state is listed as eff rate of 4.87% or $4868. No FICA of course. Taxes total about 15%. Big deal. Now if you have $300,000 in dividends I would either go with qualified dividends or long term gains rate on selling shares.

Net (w/taxes etc): $70,000 (per SmartAsset.com) breaks down to $5,000/month net ($2,500 bi-weekly). Source: about 1 year ago
