<prompt> Human: Hi everyone, as the title states I got my first job offer to work for a large company in Vancouver, BC. The job is in the IT field and pays 52k a year with full benefits, which I think for my first job is pretty decent. nbsp;The only drawback is that its a fairly long commute, 1 hour 15 minutes, and I have no clue if its feasible or even worth commuting that far. I have no debt, 2000 in a chequing account, 12k in retirement savings, and a older car which is falling apart that is worth around 2000. Right now my monthly expenses are: NetflixSpotify 20, phone bill 70, insurance 170, gas 200, entertainment 75. If I were to take the job I would need a new vehicle almost immediately, Im just worried that the wear and tear of driving 120km will end up costing me a arm and leg. nbsp;Ive only been job searching for about a month, and about two weeks ago I applied to a government job that would be a 2 minute commute from my house and pays around 10k more! Id like to wait for them to get back to me, but I also dont want to bank on it and miss out on the opportunity in Vancouver.  <response>: Why not take the job and move? I assume when you say your house, it is your parents house.
