I will be working as a "quantitative analyst" for a startup hedge fund in Manhattan. A whole new field for me (again)! I am really lucky and I know it. I hope i don't blow it.

Since the job is in Manhattan, about 1 1/2 hours each way from New Providence, we are moving to Hoboken, NJ. Just across the Hudson river from Manhattan, near the entrance to the Lincoln Tunnel.
Our new apartment is much bigger than our current one, and a lot nicer. It looks like the one in the photo (although that's a picture i found on the web). We will have a lot of windows, and a lot of room. We'll have 2 bathrooms, a dishwasher, central A/C, all the modern conveniences. And it's 2 blocks from the bus stop to the city (apparently a 15-minute commute). And it has a view of the Empire State Building!
