Subject: Fwd: your sa From: Joscha Bac Sent: Thursday, October Cc: Kevin Slavin Joi Ito To: Jeffrey Epstein <[email protected]> Dear Jeffrey, this is a difficult issue for me to ask. I have asked Martin about the cost of living in Boston; he suggested that about 100K would be necessary to keep the family fed. Is that somehow possible, please? (Our normal burn rate in Berlin is about 5000 Euro/month, which is about $82K/year, and I gather that Boston is quite a bit more expensive.) Bests, Joscha > Great, thank you. (We are a family of four, with a need to rebuild a household, send a kid into daycare and even visit the relatives sometimes. I imagine that survival in Boston will be hard on 60K; it would not be easy for a family even in Berlin.) > — Joscha » Hi Joscha, >> » I talked to Kevin and then Jeffrey about your fee/salary. >> » Unfortunately, I don't have much flexibility at MIT regarding your fee/cost at MIT. $60K is a pretty standard price for the post-doc sort of position that you'll be taking. Jeffrey said that he'll figure out a way to cover the difference outside of the MIT relationship. Can you talk to him directly about that? » - Joi > EFTA_R1_00053525 EFTA01753800
