Easy. Which one leaves you with higher net worth when you're done?

>> No.3385929

80 of course.

An equation would be helpful

Are you going to college to learn arithmetic? Because that would make sense.

Take 80k - tuition = X
Take 60k - 75% of tuition = Y

Figure it out.

>> No.3385945

>>3385943
tuition was already given in op and therefore 80 is the right answer. fucking idiots

>>3385945

obviously, and the answer could be figured out in about half a second.

OP is just retarded.

>> No.3385992

You don't even need to do the math. The 20,000 difference in pay is greater than ALL of tuition.

>> No.3386003

OP, if you take the $80,000 a year job, you will make $34,250 extra at the end of the 4 years compared to if you took the $60,000 a year job.

You will also gain $259,000 at the end of the 4 years, with tuition already paid for. Your tuition will cost $61,000.
