is it worth it to work a job with lower pay and less hours or higher pay and more hours

[UglyGod360]

here's the catch: the jews take away $200 for the higher paying job every paycheck, whereas for the lower paying job they only take away $90, which one is better for moneymaxing?

What is the pay rate for either job

$15.25 vs $17.50

Also depends on the difficulty of the work and the location.

Moneymaxxing is great but our primes are over so quickly and it's mostly incompatible with enjoying life. The main goal should be to keep your cortisol down.

$15.25 vs $17.50

the lower paying job is obviously better
less hours and less than half the tax for a pay just one-seventh less
how is this even something you have to think about, the tax cancels out whatever increase you get from the higher paying job

Money is cope tbh

Life quality is everything

Seems pretty close, and easier job mogs. No point in having high cortisol levels from some marginally better pay, as well as the taxes in the higher paying job negating the benefits to some degree.

You could also see if they got overtime if its easier job. Easy x1.5.

what if they have a $500 signing bonus, seems good since it takes away 2 and half weeks worth of tax deduction, but seems like they're desperate, which is not a good sign

miring ur high iq, but what about a $500 signing bonus?

See what the minimum time of work is to claim the signing bonus, then quit afterwards lol, and work the other easier job. If their desperate then you might be able to negotiate better pay, but it also signals shitty work environment as why would they so desperate in the first place. Its up to you, but speaking with friends who work lower wage jobs they recommend doing a easier job with less pay as those who worked somewhat higher paying low end jobs said they got burnt out quickly within a few months and felt more miserable mentally.

Looking at quit rates of the company your gonna work in imo is a good barometer of how people feel like working in the company. An excessively high quit rate imo is not good. Again you have to factor natural advancement of careers. Some companies that cater more to entry level roles and training people would naturally have higher quit rates , making it not as good of a barometer. But if the company appropriately adjusted its wage rates after people got experience, I bet the quit rate would be lower, but the company doesn't care as it sees new hires as a pump and dump tool to keep labor costs low.

apply to both jobs and work at both places for a week. Quit the higher paying job after claiming the sign on bonus. Make sure there's no strings attached to the bonus.

Whoever one gives you upward career mobility. Are these actual careers or random retail jobs?

What about after the bimax, what's your plan for money?
You should do 2 years CC -> transfer to state school graduate with STEM degree and chill making 80k annually.

Extremely NT voice.
So you're 18 years old, you have a fuck ton of time. Getting IT certs and all that is typically the move for 28+ year old oldcels. IT will never go to 6 figures whereas STEM college degrees will easily take you to 6 figures.

Trust me when I say you do NOT want to work retail/fastfood/customer service past 25. IT jobs are disappearing fast since they're so easy to acquire credentials for and many of them will essentially be customer service work. Trust me when I say college is not as hard as you think it might be and there's plenty of opportunities to create a group that helps you through homeworks and projects.
Plus this you'll have a higher class career that treats you right and gives you plenty of vacation time/breaks.

Everyone is getting a degree in stem, finance/ accounting, computer science. You still compete against hundreds of applicants per position.

Programming and accounting can be learnt without college. Virtually everything can. If money is the sole goal then a sales career is lucrative. I’m not talking the sales people in a phone store, but ones that are getting a good base salary and comission in these start up or big companies as ( business development representatives ) and account executives.

They make like 40-60K base and 20-40k in comission. You can make a lot more if you manage bigger territories and accounts.

Also finance has a ton of sales related roles so they would love that experience, and you can enter the securities industry.

Choice is up to you. If you go the accounting route note that some regions/ states might require you to get a college degree to take the cpa( cpa isn’t needed for accounting but is technically required for any high paying accounting job ). Consider self studying and then testing out of accounting courses. That way you skip the uni scam

Degree inflation is a real thing. It’s not worth slaving away for something that doesn’t guarantee anything.

This whole idea of just get some stem or cs degree fails to take into account everyone else is doing similiar stuff, and at this point your better of self studying so you avoid debt and get straight into the relevant material. Enough videos and courses online you can learn a lot , but remember practice is most important. No point just watching videos you have to do relevant practice.

Lots of people are attempting but end up switching out into something easier, but it's true more people than ever are entering this career path. However many many many of them are untalented and unskilled, with some talent and practice you can be in the top 90% and have a much easier time getting jobs. Finance only really works if you're at a target school with many connections attempting to become an IB or WM. 99% of finance grads at some shitter state school end up working a miserable job like selling insurance on the phone. Regarding accounting, I've taken an accounting class and personally it's not for me and I think it'll only appeal to a small number of people. The work is so fucking monotonous. With computer science you use your creativity to think this up in your own personal way whereas in accounting you do the same shit over and over again for decades. Plus the pay isn't even that crazy unless you stay in the Big4 for like 10+ years and reach Partner level.

Also self-taught programmers are hired WAYYY less than before nowadays, degree is the bare minimum at the big name companies. Don't go the self-taught route under the impression you'll work at MANGA with no degree.

Not true the bar has been lowered a lot, degree inflation has made it not really worth much. Your better off showing those skills in some code interview , then if that doesn’t work wage for free for a few months in some small company /business. No smaller company or small business would refuse the request. Then after the trial work you get a paid position, and work your way off.

Your right for a large company , they won’t likely bother hiring you, but smaller companies and business would be willing to work with you especially if you provide them work without any fees. Then from their you prove that a real business values your self taught skills, and can work towards getting hired into a more larger well known companies.

The idea you have to be in some gay institution to learn skills that can be learnt by anything on the internet is gone. The self taught genius era is now here.
