Day 14: Should I Take the Job?


            So a few cool things have happened since my last post.  I was able to save my mom a couple thousand dollars when I looked at her expense account and she was very impressed.  She gave me a raise to $15 an hour.  I’m really surprised she can afford to pay me like this.  I’ve seen some customers, but not nearly enough to report the income she does.  Maybe I’m just here during a slow period.

            Anyway, besides the raise, I got a job offer from an accounting firm.  They’re willing to pay me an entry level salary of $40,000.  I know that this job would take up all of my time and I don’t know if I could reach my goal if I took it.  What do you guys think?  Can I make $1,000,000 and hold this job?

Also, I thought I would give you guys an update: I’ve already accumulated $1000 in my savings account.  One one-thousandth of the way there!

  1. I'm in the market for a new accountant. Also looking for a new friend. But, either way, you should contact me (my management's information is on my profile). But yeah, even if you take the job, contact me. I could use someone to talk to...

  2. I think you should take the job if you see a lot of opportunity to move up/make more money. If you don't then don't take the job and find other ways to make more than 40 Gs a year. Just my humble opinion. Oh and congrats on the raise sounds like your rockin it.

    1. Thanks man, yeah the raise was cool, you sound like you know what you're talking about. Can you take a look at my most recent post and tell me what you think the next step towards my $1,000,000 goal is?
