<prompt> Human: Currently getting paid 50k annually. New job is offering 70k. Assume all benefits are comparable. New job increases commute time from 10 hours per month to 40 hours per month. Take home pay per paycheck is currently 1400 and new paycheck would be 2000 estimated. I calculated that my gasoline costs alone would go up 200month. As well as other associated costs-insurance, tires, and oil changes. So the 1100 increase per paycheck isnt completely real.Another big factor for me is proximity to our kids. I currently work 5 minutes from my kids school and daycare. They are young so tend to need more attention. So there is a soft cost associated with being nearby. Would you take the new job offer in my shoes? Money isnt everything for me. We strive for balance. Not thrilled with current job, but dont hate it either. New job represents a better title but not a real improvement in daily duties. Edited:OP typo and math mistake on the new take home amountEdit 2: Also, because of the increased commute and responsibilities I may have to give up a side gig coaching sports that pays 6000year. Which is truly my passion. Edit 3: We have a great, private daycare provider that costs us just under 1100 per month for 3 kids. She is great with our kids.if we move closer to new job we potentially lose that great deal.  <response>: time is valuable, not worth it imo. maybe for 100k
