Makes sense. It would increase as your status increases, since you’d be able to afford to take longer commutes for a higher-paying job, but eventually your pay would increase to a level where commuting would be a smaller portion of your income (unless, for some reason, you WANT to commute from New York to Australia on a daily basis).
