Hi acidfast,
All of what you are saying is true. Unfortunately, the cost of living - relative to my likely future income level - means I will never be able to save let alone retire. So, I need to leave Boston. (: That said, the temperature outside now is -4 degrees Farenheit, so I will not be wholly unhappy to leave LOL.
