[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have been in the same situation (3 kids within a short amount of time and needed more income to pad retirement and college savings) and I went with the money.  I am someone that works to live...I don't have to love or even like my job.  I get in, do my job well, get out.  Thats MY personality so going for more money always makes sense.  My husband is a completely different personality.  He is a physician in a field he truly LOVES (but doesn't pay great) and has had many opportunities to cross over to specialties and make a lot more money but it wasn't an option for him because his work is apart of who he is.  I think you have to examine what work means to you to decide. [/quote]

I totally agree with this.  I am in a job mostly for the money.  I don't dislike the job, but can think of many other jobs I would rather have.  There are many that would not find this a big deal, but for me it is a constant struggle.  So I agree that you have to understand what sort of role work plays in your life.[/quote]
