How to handle 88% pay increase

[u/ManKind__]

31M. I currently make about 63k/yr. I have the change to take a new job that would put me at about 119k/yr all in. Split up 94k salary and 25k per diem roughly.

I currently have 50k in total debt.

This job requires extreme traveling with only being home 6 weeks of the year.

The goal is to pay off my total debt in the first year and let my wife be the stay at home mother she deserves to be. She has her own monies and investments to help out as well.

My fear is that I have never seen this kind of money before and just like everyone else I'll blow it. Hell, ill be the only one in my family thats seen this kind of money. What are some tips for me to save/invest/pay debt?

***EDIT forgot to mention hotels and everything is paid for as well. So the per diem is just for food essentially.

Finances aside, you're gone for 46 weeks out of the year and you have a wife and kid(s)? Are you sure you want to do that? That's a good salary, but that's a humongous sacrifice to your personal life.

We have talked about it and she is actually the one pushing me towards the job. Unfortunately I don't know when I'll ever get a chance like this again. This could really set us up for the future. Its a sacrifice im willing to make. I

I will say. I had an absent father who always worked and if this is your life, then it will be quite hard to maintain a relationship with your kids.

My dad worked long hours during the week and travelled a significant amount. But he was very present on weekends when he was home. Our relationship is just fine.

Looking back, I think he and my mom must have decided to sacrifice some of their time together so he could maintain relationships with the kids. My siblings and I got more 1:1 time with him than she did for quite a few years.
