You're saying that since you make so much money at your first job, you're willing to work a 2nd full time job...and use the "extra" income from the first full time job to pay your employer on the 2nd full time job...for the privilege of working there, with the hope that over time you will get enough promotions and raises to make it worth your while...even though you have no control or promises that those promotions and raises will ever happen....and yes, why invest in something that's losing you money?
