<prompt> Human: Hello, Im hoping to get some advice or suggestions in terms of my current financial outlook should I stay where I am doing what I am, whether this new opportunity is financially viable, and if so, where my ceiling should be in terms of rent and other expenses.Some background on my current situation:Income sources I am a 22 year old Software Engineer, with a Computer Engineering major and a Computer Science minor, living in Cleveland Ohio with a base salary of 55,000 no bonus or equity. My employer offers 100 401k matching up to 3 plus an additional 50 match from 3-5. I am paid Bi-monthly, so my gross income per paycheck is 2,291.67 My federal taxable income after 401k contributions, healthcaredental, TRIP parking expenses, etc. is 2071.88 My adjusted per-paycheck income after taxes is 1523.59Debtsexpenses I have a balance of 25,180 in stafford loans as follows Direct subsidized stafford loan; principal balance 3,371.29 at 4.25, principal balance 8702.77 at 3.15, principal balance 5,336.04 at 3.61 Direct unsubsidized stafford loan; principal balance 5,813.98 at 6.55, principal balance 1,946.71 My minimum payment is 275month, and I have consistently been paying 325month I am in the process of building a home Currently an interest only construction loan until completion, and will then transition to a 15 year ARM of 230,600 I cant find the exact rate currently. The bank appraised the cost to build including land to be 450,000 The discrepancy between the loan value and the appraised cost is due to my family being in construction and being able to build effectively at cost. My parents will be helping to cover a portion of the home expenses and mortgage, as my younger brother who is still a student will be living with me, and they have planned to put what they would pay the university in housing and possibly a bit more towards those expenses. If I were to take the job or otherwise move to a different location, my parents have said the plan would be to put both their home and the home I am building up for sale, and simply keep one or the other and helping to cover the associate costs of the home I am building with the proceeds from either sale. Additional monthly expenses are pretty sporadic right now, as I have been traveling a bit and spending more money than I probably should be. This would be certainly adjusted as I begin making payments on the home mortgage. The Opportunity My offer package would be as follows for a software engineering position based in San Francisco: Salary of 100,000year, with a 7,000 signing bonus to help offset relocation costs. 50 401k match up to 6 of income Healthcare and other pre tax expenses seem to be about the same In terms of a car, I would plan to sell my current vehicle 2008 Dodge Nitro RT, which is paid off in full, and stick to public transportation and walkingbiking in the city, and if I was interested in areas outside of San Francisco something like zip car or potentially purchasing a motorcycle. Again, Bi-monthly pay, so gross income per paycheck is 4,166.67 This position would be up to 75 travel You might find yourself wondering why I would want to live in San Francisco, and pay the absurd cost of living, when Ill be traveling so heavily. San Francisco and silicon valley has been my dream since I decided to go into Computer Engineering. Since I am young, dont really know anyone in the Bay Area and in the tech industry, I have really been focused on living downtown as an opportunity to meet people, and obviously live a bit more adventurous lifestyle If living downtown is simply not financially possible for me, please let me know, and Ill start looking at some other options. The places I have been looking at have been 2500-3000month in studios and 1BR apartments, obviously with no roommate. Im open to the idea of a roommate, but if I were to go that route I would probably look into some short term housing so that I can move out there learn the city a bit and hopefully meet some people that I might be interested in living with. Thank you for taking the time to read my wall of text, Ill be following along in the comments closely, replying to any individual questions or editing this post as necessary to provide more details. Ill probably also be reposting to rcscareerquestions or rsanfrancisco in the next few days as well, but thought that here would be my first place to post since I have a probably somewhat unique financial situation as a 22 year old.  <response>: Dude, this is easy, youre 22, do it, have fun, if it doesnt work out, it doesnt work out, still do it
