A big salary is much more important than job satisfaction. Do you agree or disagree?

These days, in general, getting a well-paid

job

is everybody's dream.

In addition

, some

people

say that

money

is the

second

god because it literally can provide most of the things in our precious

life

. Some argue that

job

satisfaction is not as important as earning a big salary. I completely disagree with

this

idea and in

this

essay, I will support my opinion with relevant examples.

Firstly

, if you were pursuing just for a sake of big

money

, you would be less motivated even you are having a massive salary and are forced to work, as you are not willing your profession to be a part of your

life

, which will make you unhappy and feeling lost in

life

.

For instance

, there was a compelling article in New York Times magazine that an employee committed suicide due to depression which is mainly caused by lack of stress management and burden with the

job

.

Secondly

,

people

should choose a proper industry that they are passionate about.

This

is, in fact, vital to be successful in their

life

. A survey done by the University of Michigan proves that passion is the essential element that three-quarters of renowned

people

in every field have in common. Take Elon Musk as an example.

In other words

,

this

drives

people

's motivation to be engaged consistently with their interests, which in turn leads to satisfaction with their performance and bring victories overtimes.

Money

will come by itself later on.

On the other hand

, there is

also

an argument that earning a big salary is much more important than

job

satisfaction.

This

is because they said it can elevate their lifestyle and a sense of financial security. They can have whatever they want

such

as buying a luxurious car, owning a stunning house and being able to travel around the world without worrying about

money

.

Furthermore

, they can support their family and beloved ones without problems. In conclusion,

although

it is a common belief that having a

job

that makes a lot of

money

is much preferable, I believe it is not the thing entirely we should depend on. In my view,

life

is too short and

therefore

we should wake up with something meaningful that motivates us every morning and live with the

job

we satisfy.
