Had to pick between a hybrid job and full remote

Was stuck between a hybrid role paying $72k and a full remote gig at $58k. I took the remote job 8 months ago and it honestly saved me. No commute, no gas money, no buying lunch everyday. I figured that $14k difference turned into maybe $5k real after costs. Plus I can actually focus without office noise. Anyone else take a pay cut for better work setup?

Did you actually track your spending before and after to see how the numbers played out, or are you mostly guessing?

Your math is actually pretty close to right on that $14k difference.
