<prompt> Human: Im a 23 year old guy, currently living at home rent free since I graduated in June. Ive been working a contract position since then, which expires in April. Although it isnt guaranteed, I am optimistic that my positive performance will lead to a permanent position, which would nearly double my income.The issue Im having at the moment is that Im spending at least 3 hours of my day commuting for work and I feel like its really starting to take its toll on me. I recently got offered a really great deal on an apartment in the city and Im trying to decide if I should make the move or not...Heres what Ive calculated so far.Note that I have pretty much no furniture and I may be in need of a new car soon.Opinions are much appreciated!  <response>: April is not far away. Keep commuting until you know whether you will get a permanent position. In the meanwhile, since you dont know if you will be getting a permanent position, start looking for other jobs in January.Good luck.
