I work at a law firm and make 33k a year. They pay for 100% of my health benefits, offer 4% 401k match and it’s in a VERY nice area of Dallas. I had no prior experience or any college and have excelled at this job. The drawback though is that it’s accounting. Nothing creative or fun. I am a very creative person.
I want to move to Eugene, OR at the end of my lease. I wouldn’t have a job lined up, but I am saving plenty to live on for a while. Part of me thinks it would be better to work a job where I don’t make as much, and it wouldn’t make me feel so old and settled in. I want to move to Eugene because I love the arts, creating and viewing. I also love the outdoors. Dallas doesn’t offer me much except a few fun bars and work. I hate living in Dallas, but I make a good living for my age/experience.
It’s scary to me that the job I have now I could stay at forever and make a great and easy living! I’m only 21 and I feel like I am settling in.
So my question is: Would I be a complete moron to give up my great job and the pay and benefits to move blindly in search of some new happiness and adventure? Should I let myself be 21 and live it up, or work a job that my Mom would die for?
I’m in a tough spot. Any advice would be great!
Thanks!
You could be around for another 80 years so you’ve plenty of time to regret. But think about this, would you rather spend your life regretting the fact you gave up your job, or spend your life wondering "what if" I had taken the chance all those years ago.
