So, would you rather have a low-paying job that you love, or a high-paying job that's boring?
- Let's assume that both jobs would be the same amount of work and difficulty.
- Let's say that the salary of the dream job is $30,000, and the salary of the boring job is $250,000. You only have to support yourself, so ignore everything about supporting a family or extended family.
- Your salary will be set at this for life, but it'll be inflation-adjusted: you'll never move up the payscale, but you'll maintain your purchasing power
- Would you rather have the low-paying dream job, or the high paying dream job? How much would the salary have to be to convince you to take the boring job?
- Is money or enjoyment(a dream job) at your job more important?
