I’m a 24 year old graduate. Should I quit my job as a private tutor (home-based, 40 students), earns me 6k and can develop into tuition ctr or find job that pays 3.5k? Money VS social life (since I work on nights and weekends, and I’m home-based)?

Ask yourself, are you happy now? and then ask yourself, will you be happy with this in 5 years time? take all the replies here and input, but really sit with yourself. No one knows you better than you do

Congrats on that income level at just 24 years old!

Definitely continue on the path of being a private tutor if there's growth potential! If you can grow your "business" into a tuition centre and potentially let it run into a passive income source, you might wanna strongly consider it especially given your age - where you have more fire and energy!

I have worked hard in my 20s and can say i appreciate the freedom to take a step back in my 30s if i feel like it.

All the best and good luck!

Wow 6k at 24 is impressive. i think u can just continue esp since ur confident u can build tuition centre. ur current salary already higher than 50% of sporeans why would u want to take almost 50% cut?

Making a decision between your current job as a private tutor and a potential job with a lower salary but more social life is indeed a significant choice. James Clear's "Atomic Habits" provides a great framework for making such decisions.
