It does help but then you won't be able to get the max deserving salary

In your country, do they pay according to the distance one lives from work? I don't get what you mean that a person would not get maximum pay.

The trouble with that is that if you work in a city, usually it's much more expensive to live near the city center than further out. My partner commutes to a different city each day and that's still much cheaper than it would be for us to rent near his work. We also wouldn't be able to have a house with a garden if we lived in the city, so we couldn't keep chickens or grow vegetables and fruit.

I love the garden part. It helps you save money on food which is very important.

[Treborika]

The fares on the public transportation has really gone up in my country. So living nearby the working area is an added advantage because you could be saving alot on that.

This is simple common sense. if you stay near your work place you would spend less on transportation fare

I hate doing long commutes into work because it's not only expensive but also time consumming and exhausting. Having said that, I'd hate to live too close to work because once I'm done working, I want to completely switch off, disconnect and recharge. Plus sometimes when your superiors know how close you are to work, they can exploit the situation. Anyway, I've found the best scenario... simply work 100% remotely.

Everything you said is quite true. But you can stay close to work and no one knows where you are staying. Remember the last the ultimate goal is to save money.

Working out transportation expenses is very important. High transportation costs to work relative to pay erodes the very essence of getting a job in the first place.

I am just few kms away from my work so I do save money

[Fidelia]

I have been in a situation where I used to pay transport to work and barely had enough from the pay to take care of myself. I made a determination to never do a job that I would spend more than a dollar on transportation costs b

I am sure with that, you don't get to spend too much of your earnings on transportation. And you can trek on some days that the weather is fine.

[King Belieal]

There is nothing as sweet as eliminating expenses on transportation to work entirely from your budget. That can be achieved when you stay within the area your office is located. You would just need to trek to and fro work. You would even avoid going to work late.

[Tinni]

There are so many jobs I have turned down because the distance is far. You have to control how much you spend to get paid a salary. That's like your capital and the remainder is your profits.

[JASPREET]

I am now at around 10kms away from my house so its quite far from my liking

[Uty Theo]

If you are living in a city where transportation is not expensive, you can afford to stay far away from your workplace and still be fine

[Kalayla]

I have seen people living in one city and working in another city. I just want to believe they are given a special transportation allowance.

[SHAHID987]

Although it remain difficult to remain close to our work place, because when we get job we can't get it by our own likeness as it must be near our houses. But if it happen then it save time and money both.

[arunima]

I was into a full time job few years back . My workplace was only 8 Kms away but driving in the traffic during peak hours was horrible. Now, I have moved to a part time job and my workplace is at walkable distance. I walk to my workplace. I have not taken out my car much in the last few years. It's not only money saving but has also helped me with my health. Commutation in the heavy traffic was a big toll on my health.

[King Belieal]

Staying close to your workplace makes your life a lot cheaper and simpler. You trek to work, you are exercising as well.

[JASPREET]

I love to stay close to my workplace and it has so many advantages and if you can find office nearby then it will save money and time

[Vehlijanta]

If your main aim is to earn more then you don't need to think about this at first place
