thats the thing though, depending on who you know, what kind of previous experience, and what your career field is, from what i hear and know little about is that its not that easy to come by a job in Pittsburgh that is a big paying job unless you have 10-15+ years in at one place. Depending on what the details are about this particular contractor job or any contractor job for that matter going for a year is not exactly that bad for 100k. It all depends on you no one else can answer this for you. I mean he did ask for opinions and he is getting everyone’s opinion everyone is not gonna feel the same about it.
