slk_23 09/12/17 3:31:37 PM #1:	Which one would you take? 30-hour/week, $30,000/year job 60-hour/week, $60,000/year job View Results I'm trying to decide whether my precious video games are worth all that free time. Since I have no wife or kids, I don't have to worry about spending my money on other people. On the other hand, having all that extra money is nice. I just don't know what good money would do if I don't have the time to enjoy it. Work-life balance seems to be much more difficult to achieve nowadays than it was even ten years ago.

The Top Crusader 09/12/17 3:38:21 PM #4:	Probably the 30 hours a week. I could really use 60k because I've got a baby due in a few months... But if I'm working 60 hours a week I'm not even going to have much time at home, and even now, babyless and working 40-45 hours a week its tough to get stuff done that needs done as well as find time to do fun stuff. (and 30k isn't really bad, especially for the hours put in) --- -- - <cite>The Top Crusader posted [p:886476408] in Would you ... [t:75767567]...</cite> <quote>Probably the 30 hours a week.
