I may get to have my dream job come the new year
trouble is I have a pretty solid job right now that pays well and has room to grow and is a good job that I like for a lot of reasons. It also has benefits and I'm already a manager so I'm on the right track here.
i'd have to leave that job and take a risk on the dream job. Which could yeild the big bucks but I could also go bust.
Ah well, I'm getting a break that I never expected to get and I cannot complain. Nice to have this decision to make!
I'm just writing to say it's not that easy to decide between the two!!!

It's looking as though, a few years down the road, I could have a mix of both!

If I had to choose between both I would choose #1

I choose number one.
I want to enjoy children when I'm still young and healthy.
I would rather pinch and save and go on vacation than have a fancy car and huge house.
I don't want to be tied down to loans and payments.
But, I am thinking now of pursuing a Phd after I finish teacher's college, which could end up being lots of work and needing money so I don't know.
Overall I want a job where I get the satisfaction of doing what I love but also having a life outside of my work.

Well obviously life doesn't always work out the way one hopes, but that is my hope in life, if a choice is available.
If my family falls apart and the economy won't support what I want to do then I will take a soul-sucking job and eke out a miserly living.
I think the question was more a question about values and less a question about what you actually are able to do. I value people over things, thus I will pursue the accumulation of relationships and experiences over the accumulation of material.
And I was answering truthfully

Well, I'll answer the job on behalf of my roommate, because we've discussed this many times.
He works a job in a field he enjoys, but which is slowly sucking the life and happiness out of him. He works 10+ hours every day, is incredibly stressed, and gets yelled at on a daily basis. He's mentally figured out how he could clean out his office, walk out without anyone noticing and never look back many times.
BUT...he won't, because the potential financial payout is too good.
He's going to have a heart attack before the age of 40, I have no doubt.
At least he's honest, I guess.

I see your point. Ppl are hypocrites.
Like those studies where they ask ppl if they would donate to a charity, and how much. Then they leave and are approached by a charity and no one gives as much as they said or at all.

That's going to be the title of my mem(e)oirs.
I choose 1 by a long shot. But I think if you can figure it out ie: have your own business doing something you like, then it can work out both ways.
I think my next move is going to be to work in construction for the next 5 years or so. I'd like to get some more experience with different machines, tools, and mediums. I have already gained a lot of great knowledge in building, and would like to be able to take 6 months off in say 10 years from now, and build my own house. I have some great ideas I'd like to see put into fruition.
Luckily, I have a good friend who is an architect. She is helping me get the plans ready and has lots of great ideas of her own.
