The question of whether we'd rather choose a job we hate with a good pay or the one we love and inspiring but low pay and have to live on a budget, it's a tricky question which would have been easier to answer but now it has become a difficult one because of the current state of the economy and inflation going on, so I would be honest and say this with a sad heart I will go for the first option which is the one I hate but with good pay. Why?

Choosing the job I hate with good pay isn't by choice but the economy's choice. Let's take an example of why I chose that; in Nigeria, the cost of living is extremely high, the price of goods and commodities tends to increase as the day goes by and getting increments in salaries is something that doesn't happen except with enough prayer and shoe licking, so getting a job that has a good pay but you hate it is something you'd have to overlook for your survival.

Another example why I would choose the job I hate but with good pay is because of the poor economy to provide good infrastructures that will enable one to pursue their dreams or practice the job that they love and it's even rare to get a job that has a good pay so when you finally get a job that has good pay, you would have no choice than grab it even if you hate it.

So getting a job you love and find inspiring but with low pay and having to budget your financial matters may lead to you not enjoying other things that you would have loved to, instead you might end up becoming a minimalist which is not a bad thing though but the point is to fully enjoy the things I want and survive the inflation or economy, I would choose the job I hate as long as it gives me the good pay to help take care of my needs.
