Go for the 60k job. Seriously. This is your best option for your immediate income and future value.

You will have a head start over your peers who won't even enter the work force until age ~23, with college debt to boot. Go for it and don't look back.

The path to career advancement is to have a job, learn everything you can, then hop when you find another offer with a big bump in pay.
