I need some advice from the beyond IT crowd.
I've been at my current salaried IT position (network analyst) for 4 years. Recently I was approached about a job opportunity for a contract position. Pay is about 35k more a year than what I currently make but is only 6 months with the possibility of extension. I've never done the contract side of IT, and some of my IT friends seemed to think it's a step backwards. Thoughts?
I don't have any kids, no mortgage. I can't decide if it's worth giving up a job I'm fairly happy with for more money, but less security.
