[quote=Anonymous]Who is negotiating college tuition costs AND paying for childcare? 45/hr is $7200/mo before taxes. Assuming capacity to work, I would of course call that “worth it”. That’s a couple mortgage payments for me, or a quarter of the cost of a new car, or an annual Roth IRA contribution, or a nice family vacation. All things I value. So yes, worth it. But what I’m guessing is that OP has someone else whose income pays for living expenses, cars, investment contributions, and vacations. Which is why they are sniffing at 45/hr. But in that case, is there any amount that would be worth it? If all your wants and needs are taken care of, then is there any amount of money worth working for? At that point, I’d look for a job (or more likely, a project or volunteer position) that had value to me outside of any compensation. But most people need money.[/quote]
