[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree. You can’t be too picky. My neighbor will only accept certain roles and he’s been unemployed for 15 months now. [/quote] This is what I wonder about certain people, to be honest. I make about $200K a year. I work in a weird, kind of niche field that is typically in demand, but the higher salary jobs are harder to get. I regularly get LinkedIn messages from people trying to hire for roles making $100-130K. I’d totally be open to taking a job like that if I had to. Much rather be working, staying busy, and getting benefits. I tell myself I’ve made it work on $40K, $60K, $100K, all the way to my current salary (and I’ve only been working nine years). I understand this would likely be different if you had really high fixed costs, lots of kids, high mortgage, etc. [/quote] You sound like you don’t have children to support. I’m not “too good” to make $40k but my family can’t eat on that. [/quote]
