I just stumbled upon this thread. I am 20 years old employed full time in the timber industry, and have been for almost a year and a half. I just took on a second job, starting 30 minutes after my primary job and ending shift at midnight. I am a 6am riser for my primary job. I will also do a 10 hour and a 9 hour shift on weekends. I didn't even think of my family, mum dad and my brother, as well as friends, just thought of myself and the money I'd make. This thread makes me want to throw the second job in. But If I ever wish to own a home, it's pretty nessecary I think, unfortunatly.

5 hours sleep a night, and I haven't started the job yet. Parents say, that for a generation Y'er, I've got one helluva work ethic. I tell them it's temporary, let's hope it is.

If you need to do this, do it now. Get a decent deposit on your home and minimize your debt.

Once you have a family, then you will be in a good position to cut back and only work one job....
