Reply to comment by 4runner01 in I make 42k and I work from home 4 out of 5 days a week. I signed a 60k offer onsite 23 miles there and back 45 min, 45 min back. Does this make any sense? by RemarkableCell1859

Part of this is incalculable. For example, the $60K job likely comes with higher potential earnings later on. It is generally much easier to move to $80K from $60K than it is from $42K and so on. Spending extra year(s) at a $42K job could come with significant opportunity costs down the road. Then you start thinking about time value of money, etc and those become magnified quite a bit.
