Reply to 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
Think of this as a short term change. You do this job a year and apply for something paying 75k next year that’s remote or hybrid. 2 years max at this job.

I would never buy a car that was equal to my annual income. Let’s start with that as a benchmark.
My parents would say, “only buy a car if you can buy it outright.”

You need a car to get around in most of the country. But having an existing paid off car makes buying a new one (without trying to trade in the old) odd.
