Choose between passion and higher salary.

It would depend on which one has the most job security for me. If I left job A and found that things wouldnt work in job B, could you go back? Or does job B enable you to learn a little more so you can change jobs later on to go to better places?

Hi acquaria, i went through this dilemma 10 years ago. You have to prioritise. Reflect on yourself, family, relationships, expenses, etc.. List it down the +ve and -ve factors. I'm sure you can systemetically come to a conclusion. I had a degree in Info Sys & Managemnt while i was working in accountancy. I thought that would help me advance my career into the computing sector. However, i was starting my family in 5 years time. Would a high flying career be worth sacrificing my family? I say NO. I've been teaching for 10 years now. Love my job and i have time to spend with my kids. I had to go through a significant pay cut no doubt. But who can pay me the time raising and nurturing my 2 boys? Money is important but it definitely is not the single most important factor for me. My family is. Good luck & God Bless. - Lyn

I have nor one neither the other.... eh eh eh eh.... Well, generally speaking I love passion, so.... I always prefer it rather than and higher salary. The answer can be only personal, and so.... if I should choose I'd choose the possibility A, but I recognize that life is very hard. Me too I live in Italia, and I know very well how it's hard to pay rent, mortgage loan, shopping, taxes, and so on.... I think that you have to think a lot of things before choosing.
