Definitely would choose loving my work. What good is money if you're unhappy most of the time?

Well, you do need some money to live, although not nearly as much as some people think. There is a lot to be said for the simple life where you are not always concerned about wearing the latest fashions or having the latest "in" gadget.
I have had jobs where I made good money, but hated getting up in the morning because I didn't want to go to work; and, while at work, I had my eye on the clock, just waiting until I could go home. I lived for the weekends; but, that is no way to live.
Now I make a great deal less money, but I like my job and life is a whole lot more pleasant.
I made a choice; and, would make the same choice again.

Well the hate my work and make a ton of money. It's hard to find a job you find yourself loving these days and I'm not a picky man but if your making a ton of money well the job wouldn't matter too much because you wouldn't be working it too long before you cash out and quit ;).

I would take the job with a ton of money. You dont have to like your job. Not many people do... its work..not funtime! Everyone works for the same reason anyway right? To make a living! I would take a ton of money over pleasure at work! Also, if you go to school for what you want to do then you can make a lot of money and do what you like!

I think most everyone has this choice.
you could sell your body even in the most remote places on earth and make lots of money. Obviously lots of money in the sticks is not what's lots of money in London but it's still lots of money COMPARED to what other people that live in the sticks make, yes??
and if you are prepared to work for next to no wage then you can choose to do almost what you want.
This was my trick actually. Go and work for nothing (offer to make their coffee) then when you have learned the job and people there know and trust you you can ask for a wage.

I'd choose to love my work and earn no money coz if I hated my job and earned tonnes of money, I'd not be working much and holidaying. I hate my job, time is dragging, waking up is a pain, everyday is a blue day. What point is there to work? But I'll have a ton of money....

If I didn't have to make money, then I would do a job I love. If I had to survive on what I made, then I would work a job I hated for the money.

i probably choose not to make a lot of money...because then i will have another reason to be happy... going to work to a place you hate makes you life very stressful and hate it more and more everyday...then you have the feeling that work is a nightmare....

One spends the better part of ones life in the workplace.
You used "hate". If so, no amount of money will make one happy if one "hates" ones work.
Work should be an enjoyable experience to some extent.

i would choose love your work and make no money because what good is a job if you dont like it? your bound to be miserable and if your miserable whats the point in making good money if you dont feel good about it.
