<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 7502599, member: 27832&quot;]Okay, I get it now.</p><p><br /></p><p>Your point: you don&#039;t slack off when others are depending on you. You don&#039;t back out of doing something you&#039;ve agreed to do. If you have a chance to make a lot more money for a little more work, you&#039;re foolish not to take it. I agree with ALL of that.</p><p><br /></p><p>My point is that more money isn&#039;t worth giving up your family, your friends, your health. There&#039;s a sickness endemic in our society that forces people to do just that. Sometimes their job pays so poorly that they <i>need</i> to work themselves to death to stay housed and fed. Sometimes they have to &quot;spend&quot; (<i>waste</i>) hours a day just <i>getting to and from</i> their job. Sometimes they make <i>great</i> money, but if they go in on the weekend instead of taking that fishing trip or taking the kids to the park, they can maybe get that promotion and make even <i>more</i> money -- and more is always better, right?</p><p><br /></p><p>Yeah, more money is better. But it&#039;s not better than <i>everything</i>.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
