<prompt> Human: Hello guys!Throwaway account. As the title indicates, Im in the fortunate position of having 2 job offers entry level in my field. Would you please help me decide? Below are the main terms of each offer:Company W:80hrsbiweekly. Pay: 56hr. Location: Chicago, Illinois. Got word about this offer yesterday after intense networking over the last few months with recruiter and potential future supervisor. Offer is verbal at this point but the supervisor said he would make it official next week HR paperwork also to follow if I accept the offer. 2 weeks of vacation time. Possibility for overtime. Company W is rather large locations nationwide and abroad, and opportunities for growth are there if one is willing to relocate...or so Ive been told. Annual bonus of up to 24kyear initially. 401k match at 4 rate.Company S:40hrsweekly. Pay: 65hr. Location: Middle of Nowhere, Washington state. 2.5 wks of vacation time. Not clear about possibility for overtime company S has so many locations in any given town. Not clear about opportunities for growth at this company as it seems to have more of a regional presence than a national footprint Midwest and west coast; very few locations in NE. 401k match rate of 6 starting in year 2 of employment.I should say Im single; Im from New England and dont have any ties to either state above. At this point in time, Im fine with moving to either place with the intention of coming back to NE in 1-3 years with experience and depending on opportunities. Wanna be close to family and friends, ya know.Heres the kicker: 248k in student loans professional degree from private uni Im a first gen immigrant and I grew up poor so living frugally tho healthily is second nature. I plan on living as I do now so I can pay off much of this debt as quickly as I can. For the move, Ill only have what can fit in my car own car outright with no payments...Dont own much really. Dont plan on buying a house soon or anything. Dont havewatch cable tv; dont plan on getting it either when I move. To minimize renting costs, I plan on getting a studio apartment preferably or finding a roommate. In my field, work shifts run relatively long 10-12hrs, so I feel theres no need for a huge house or expensive toys as I wont have the timeenergy to use them. My hobbies usually include reading, biking and other outdoors activities all rather inexpensive. One thing I plan on doing is giving a monthly allowance to my widowed mom. Shes helped me so much that I wouldnt be where I am today if it wasnt for her. Plus, she never went to college and worked low paying jobs to support us without much in terms of savingsretirement funds. This maybe a cultural thing but I wanna pay her back some, even tho she doesnt want to.Anyway, could you guys please give me your 0.02 cents about the above offers? Things I should be thinking about when deciding which one to accept? Taxes? Savings accounts to look into? I have such a poor financial literacy im scared of making blunders unnecessarily. I really could use any and all advice from you experienced folks. Please help. Thank you!!!Assistant: Pharmacy right? PNW is legit, hangout there for a few years and get your dose of the mountains. Then go back home. Plus no state tax in WA. Careful though, lifestyle is a hell of a drug you may not want to leave. Bartells? Friend who works for them enjoys it. Human: Yes, Im in pharma lol! Are you from Washington? Whereabouts if you dont mind my asking? Thanks for the comment!  <response>: She works downtown Seattle, loves it. Rural Washington gets you all of the nature at half the cost though.I lived in Seattle, Columbia city.
