I am looking at a job opportunity which would add about an hour to my daily commute (total commute would be 2 hours round trip). The job is 4 days per week (as is my current job) and I am estimating it would add 150-200k to my annual income with the potential for more. I am a subspecialist in a saturated job market so there are not any opportunities closer to home for now. We don't want to move because we love the area and don't want to pull my 3 young kids out of schools. The lifestyle at my current job is great, but I am getting screwed financially- <25th percentile income for 50th percentile production and there's not much hope for renegotiation. My wife is also an MD and works part time she plans to go back to full time in probably 6-7 years when our kids are all in school for the full day. Together we gross about 700k but in my specialty many docs are making 1M+
Would you add the hour to your commute for the extra income? Thanks!
