<prompt> Human: Long-time reader, first time poster. Let me preface this by saying I know how fortunate I am to be in the situation I am in, but I would like some outsider advice from people who have gone through this before or anyone who can help me through this. I am fresh out of college, with little real world experience so this is my first go at making big financial decisions and I want to get off to a good start.Quick backstory, I got an job offer last week and emailed them a signed acceptance of their letter on Sunday. Yesterday Monday, I got an offer from a different company, with more money but in a more expensive place to live. Basically the two offers come to this: Offer 1:Tucson, AZEntry Level Job70,000 base salary8500 in Bonuses Signingrelocation3 401K matchOffer 2:Renton, WALevel 2 Job86,000 base salary5,000 in Bonuses6 401K matchBoth companies have similar benefits healthinsurancePTOetc.Which one puts me in a better situation to save money. Knee-Jerk reaction would be the higher paying job, but Im not so sure based on cost of living differences.Also if there is anything I may be overlooking in these offers, please let me know. Thanks!  <response>: Do Renton. I live in Seattle and you can find some not too expensive places to live around Renton. Plus... Its beautiful here.
