I would be tempted on the 5k if it adjusted for inflation every year. As it is now, that's hardly a step up from what I'm making, and in 10-20 years will probably not be enough for basic expenses. This would also make me lose health insurance, since I get that far cheaper through my job, so I would almost be losing money with that deal.
The other one would let me pay off my house and car in half a year, at most, and although 5 out of 7 days each week would suck, the extra money would mean I can do whatever the fuck I want on the remaining two days. It would also mean I can take an actual vacation. Though I would prefer doing my current job over the one in the deal.

Its definitely more of a personality question than a financial one.
I'm not sure I agree with this, at least not with the amounts offered. You want the question to basically be "Live comfortable and not have to work" vs "Be wealthy but work a lot." 5k a month does not mean "Live comfortable" for me, so the question doesn't work.
