This is tricky, because not all families can afford to not have someone working for the whole lot of them to live decently. If it is a matter of being able to send my loved ones to the best schools, provide the best health care and give them a better living condition, I would rather work for them than for all of us to suffer together. But if we can live simply with no problem at all, then of course I prefer to be together with them. It's a matter of living within our means, but there are situations where we are forced to seek more earning and opportunities, like when I said we need to pay more for health care for a sick loved one, etc.

I always preferred my family than career that is the reason I am behind my school and college friends as most of them are at good posts and have lots of bank balance but that is not what is important in my opinion. For me I am happy that I am with my family.

It's a tough choice..I need both..but sometimes we have to sacrifice something to achieve a great career and it will be beneficial for our family also..
