I could move to a town I like, make ~30k a year and be around people I know/trust...

OR

I could move to a town I don't like, make ~50k a year and be around people I don't know/trust...

Hmmup!

Hmmm, what if you're underpaid and unappreciated?

I could move to a town I like, make ~30k a year and be around people I know/trust...

I could move to a town I don't like, make ~50k a year and be around people I don't know/trust...

Take the second option and buy yourself the PS4, socialising with others is overrated.

I'm not underpaid, so far so good. Appreciation is not essential as long as the people aren't annoying.

Why the Animation/Art industry of course. Just imagine, a nobody amongst hundreds of others working hours & hours for a minute in a animated movie. (Which may or may not be used.)

The second option. The persons you trust might not be so trustful ~kashira

And you will eventually come to know people in the second place.

Whichever makes your quality of life higher.

Higher EV ftw. More marginal benefit per dollar or per unit of happiness gained from people/surroundings is sorta on you.

Incidentally, I'm reading The 4-Hour Workweek right now.
I should really be sleeping soon though.

It depends where you live.
The cost of living can vary pretty wildly from place to place, at least in the USA.

It's also my first non-hourly job, so I don't expect to get paid a massive salary.
But the 30k job has has better insurance, and both have pretty good retirement plans.
