Same here glad I'm perm WFH, it's also made me look at life at a different perspective, and not even look for a higher paying job at this point. I did the math, even if I got a new job that offered me $10,000 more but having to commute to office, my net overall gain is minimal that its not even worth switching. Mind you a $10,000 pay increase is quite substantial; however, once you factor in insurance, gas, etc, that $10,000 pay increase isn't much.
$10,000 gross. $7,000 net taxes, less your car expenses say $4,000 a year. Your really only up $3,000.
