There's no right or wrong answers for this one, but Id be interested in your opinion:
I have been in my government job (including the three hours commuting each day) for 11 years. Its a safe secure job but Ive been bored with it for a long long time. A dream job within 20 mins of home has just come up and I have put my hat in the ring for it with an excellent chance of getting the job. It also pays a little bit more. Jobs in my career field are very rare.
My conundrum:
1) Its only a two year contract
2) We're planning on starting a family within the next few months (Im 33 and shouldnt delay too much longer)
3) We're slightly negatively geared on five properties and have some CC debt from a recent wedding and OS trip which I think is giving us a false sense of drowning in debt - which makes my husband nervous about me stepping away from job security.
Im so excited about a new job, close to home where I will have the time again to reconnect with my own community. Im not too worried about a two year contract, because if I work my *** off, generally this is rewarded with more work, but the timing with attempting to start a family is a challenge...
What would you do?
