But... Ok - I know you will think that I am mad. But I am not happy. I dream to get something else. More free will and more me. Do you think I should take it (in current economy it is very important to get job) or go for my dream, which means no money for some time...

I actually was in your shoes and in the end, I realized that there is no point in money if you feel alienated, unhappy, if you feel like you're not yourself while working. Money doesn't worth the loss of one's self. If you work on something you enjoy doing, then that's great. Go work, make some money, and then pursue your dream without worryng about money. But if your job upsets you, just quit. It doesnt worth it. You'll feel worse and worse, and guilt about not doing things you love anymore. In my case, there was a time I realized and thought to myself "It's kinda like I'm not living anymore. So, what's the point?". Better to have little money and be in peace with yourself than a lot of money and no soul.

Hello my friend, I think that you should take the job and then stash some money away, perhaps to work towards your dream. Some dreams are just dreams they may never happen but if you feel that yours is a worthwhile dream then you should continue trying to pursue it in addition to making money from your job. Take care happpy mylotl, night nite!

I think you should get a job... then you can go for your dream later once you have everything
