Definitely less stress. Money is highly over rated! I am a firm believer in there being much more to life than money. As long as you have enough to pay your bills and buy some food that is all you need.

I do not believe that the job title matters one little bit, but rather that you love doing the work you do. if you hate being a CEO or manager or what ever you will only do the job, if you on the other hand loved your work , titles and even money do not make that big of a difference. Today people seem to be geared toward the big bucks,no matter where it comes from, and once they find out what the job entails, they soon fall into a funk because it is stressful, no appreciation and very hard work, and no amount of money seems to compensate for that. I was a professional cook for the the last 25 years of my working experience I never had a day that I didn't look forward to going to work.I made sure that I never did a mundane or half hearted job,because that was not who I was. very interesting discussion

Goodmornin Robin, thanks for your thoughts on this matter, this actually is helping me alot more then you will ever know. I think you are right. I think that you were blessed to have a job that you love and have stuck with for so many years. Wish I could find one that's like that. Who knows, maybe I will. Thanks again... :o)

Stress has nothing to do with the nature of Job. Its our attitude of handling the job or any particular circumstances. It is developed indise our brain. So I will choose the Job which offers me good money.

There has been stress on every job, that I've ever had, at least to some degree. So I have to disagree with you here. And no, it's not just me. That's cool, that you would take the job with more money, do it if you can, (JUST DO IT!). :o) Thanks, Gloria777

I would pick a job with less stress. I have had both high paying jobs and stressful jobs and the highpaying ones were always the most stressful. I prefer an atmosphere of just leave me be and let me do my work and if I ask you to do something and you say you will I expect you to do it.
