Probably not. What’s the upside career-wise?

For an angular position, how much should I counter offer?

Charles Schwab bLDY08 Oct 10, 2019

Not worth it money wise unless they offer high bonus

Prudential dbYy60 OP Oct 10, 2019

No bonus

50K in San Antonio will probably go farther than 80K in NYC I would say do it if its for a big jump career or logo wise and you’re still young and nothing is keeping you in TX

If it was summer , you could have slept on the streets of Manhattan. Winter is Coming ! Hard luck

Well people survive living on the streets in Manhattan each Winter. It’s not impossible. 80k can also get you a shoebox in Brooklyn with like 5-6 roommates.

Seems like poverty wages in nyc

1) What position? 2) If your dream is to move to NYC, it’s better to do so with with a job that pays $80K than no job at all. You can live in poverty for a year and then find another job that pays more. 3) If your dream is NOT to live in NYC, stay in Texas. Your quality of life is a lot better on $50K in SA Texas than in NYC. Remember, Texas does not have a state tax but NY definitely does, and a high one.

Not only the state tax but everything is way more.

Prudential dbYy60 OP Oct 10, 2019

Nice thanks for the info. Glad I posted this. Almost took an offer blindly, but blind clutched.

Expedia Group myfcr74 Oct 10, 2019

80k is not gonna be great in NYC unless you have 4 roommates. Otherwise, you’ll have to live a ways out.

Offer them to work part time for that amount
