Are you doing a job just for the sake of the Money?

I really like my work but recently I met a woman who told me I work too many hours and I should close down my business and sign-up with her home based skin care program. I would never consider closing down and feel hurt that someone would undervalue what I do like that. It's great to have a job that you like.

I hope that I will never have to work just because of money. If I don't like what I am doing, no money can compensate the boredom and unhappiness of a job I hate. But I know that many people are just the opposite - they work whatever they are offered, if the pay is good.

Yes, in the first case. Because I do not have enough money to meet the ends and to educate my son. After I earn sufficient money, I will have time to think of other things.

Honestly speaking, yes, this is my main source of income. But as days and years passed by I have learned to love my job and gained friends in and out of work.

Hi Andy, When i was in my early twenties, i had a high flying ambitions just as you and finished all my departmental exams to make myself promoted in my career. But in due course of time, the weightage/ importance of the family situations/problems had made me to stick to the existing post, and i preferred not to go for higher cadres. Hence to put things straight, i go for job, to have money, but not to sacrifice my family life/family members for the sake of money. Some how, i made to strike a Balance.

well after i/ve finished my studies i just think to find job. but as usual most of the co dont want to hire employees because of their certificate but based on experience. So i've decided to find any jobs to make myself more experienced.It means experiences comes first and money last. But after a few years i'm feel that i'm doing jobs because of money. Right now everything is money..even i love this job but sometimes i feel that my salary right know is not enough to fulfill my life. haha of course i always apply for new job that offer high salary and hopes that my application successful.

Frankly speaking, I do a job for interests more rather than money. That is why until now I am not so well off lol... but, I could always feel happy. I do come across friends in pursuing for higher pay and change their jobs often. Many of them have higher income than me. They will never feel contented so they could never enjoy peaceful life as I do...

Coming to my job everyday doesn't excite me. it even came to a point that it frustrated and depressed me..I felt there was no more life in me. I felt that God has cursed me to toil and sweat just to earn a living. .but I realised, it is just my feelings towards my job. It is just my thought. So what i did... I changed my perspective. I prayed hard to God to change my thought.So that I will enjoy my job. Right now..I'm cool with it already. I think God has answered my prayers. :)

yes, i have to say i work for the sake of money, and i am not interested in it. i was a secretary, you know, it is a boring job. you can't have your own idea, you must follow your boss. if he/she made a mistake, then you corrected for him/her, then you didn't get a prize from him/her, but a blaming.because you dont' do as what he/she said. then i feel i can't bear it and quit it . but it is hard to earn money online.

I do my job because: I need extra money I love doing my job It keeps me busy and on the go always I don't like being sedentary and to stay at home doing nothing I love to be with people

This is a very good question. I am yet to join my job. I am a kind of person who can develop interest in whatever i am up to but still i will be doing my job just for the sake of money. This is because, my area of interest is completely different to my current job. And money is the reason for me to choose this job. I am paid much lesser in the field which i love.

Yes Of course.

As for me, my aim was to have a job just to have money so I can survive. But as years gone by, I began to feel unhappy with the job I had so I wondered around and look for additional work. I had 3 jobs and most likely I don't feel happy anymore with the work I had so I resigned... Now I have a new job to which I know I can give my best and I feel happy with it for it can give way to mental growth. For me, It's not just the salary we get from the companies wages but what we can give for the company to be successful.

well ,Its almost the opposite for me ,I used to work for money initially but later I started building up my career ,it's a little straining but I feel it's worth taking all the pressure for the sake of building your career.. And it's all cool at the work place ..

i think, i am doing job for money ^^ if not for the money and than for what kind of thing again?? :D if that job not paid u, are you gonna do it??

yes,to be honest with you,I think my two jobs are all not my like jobs.just for money to do it because I need money very much.like now,I am taking a part-time job to earn some money,thus I can shoulder the burden of my parents.

I'm always thinking about having a better job and that I hate the one I have.Just when I really get sick of going to it something always happens that I need money for of course.

To be honest,most people I konow when they find a job the first thing they consider is money,sometimes I will do as they do ,however,money is the not the first most important ,the most forehead thing is our skill ,which makes us different from others ,how these skills gain?that's all because the jobs that we found,if they can give us more skills which we can't learn from our books ,skills always can't be balanced by money,No matter how low the money they will pay me,I will not care.,So in my view we should find the job which can give us challanges and able to make us learn something,These all our treasure in our future work.Also this can also give us so much money in our future work.;-)

in my current job right now, i would have say yes, im just doing my job for the sake of money, but i want to have find a job where i can also enjoy what i do..

Well, I ever had a good job of doing international business in a big company,but in year 2003,I occasionally foud the way to earn money easily in internet. Therefore,I quit my job for selling goods through internet. Now,unfortunately, because of the cut-throat competion in internet,I can hardly earn money from it. I just want to get a good job for my future and for my family,but more and more employees are fired,it is so hard to find a good job for me. How can I do??
