First week at the "new" job...

Sounds like you have a plan and want to help your parents, that's good. Just don't let life pass you by while you're working. I hear you only get to pass through this way one time.

We all need money, how much is up for debate. You're trying to help your parents, that's commendable. What I was trying to say before is money isn't everything. You can work your butt off, buy the best of everything, but will it make you happy? It may stroke your ego but will it bring you happiness?

Don't get me wrong, you're trying to a great thing for your parents, I'm sure they're proud of you. Just don't lose your perspective. Like I said, I traded overtime for time off. Turned down overtime when I felt I could. The extra money, well I don't think we missed it. We had time to enjoy our children and our life.

So good luck to you, hope you do well.
