2. Which is more important: work or money?
Would you quit your job if you made a fortune or had a lot of money? In a 1995 poll conducted by the Gallup Organization, quite a few people said they would do so, yet researchers find that work is one of life’s chief satisfactions for many people.
Take Liu Yan, 23, a former school teacher, for example, before she quit her job in 1995, she taught at a high school. Although the salary was quite moderate, she liked her job and worked so seccessfully that in only one year’s time after her graduation from college, she not only won a prize for excellence in teaching, but also enjoyed wide popularity among her students. In her second teaching year, however, she met a millionaire and got married; and went to live in Hong Kong with her husband. There she led a very comfortable and easy life, spending most of her days doing shopping and going travelling. After one year of endless vacation, though, she began to miss her work and asked for return to her teaching position. ‘I’m so tired of this kind of life ,’she explained in her letter to the school she had previously worked for, ‘that I miss more than ever the days with my students.’
So what do you think of it? Which is more important: work or money?
One more question, if there are tow job, the one offers good salary with little challenge,(just like work in the government department), the other, a lot of challenge but low salary , what’s your choice?
