Default Work-Life Trade Off

This thread is about choosing what to do in life.

I am currently working a job that I have no passion for but that pays very well and allows me to buy and do the things I like. I can also see a path that involves doing a job that would be fulfilling day to day but comparably very low paying.

There are ups and downs to both sides. Regardless of the stigma of materialism, being able to have and do nice things is important to me. One of the points of life is to have experiences and money definitely helps that. Being fulfilled and making a difference in the work that I do is also important to me. I want to have my cake and eat it too. But how?

I’d like to hear other peoples’ stories about similar life choices. Perhaps I can see a path from there.
