Personally, I'd prefer to work for money and have low job satisfaction. I have no real passions in life that drive me to want to do anything, so I get most of my kicks from stuff that costs money (TVs, computer games, live music, traveling, eating/nights out etc.)

In order to do those things in my free time, I'm obviously gonna need a job that pays well, and the benefits outweigh the boring work imo.

However, I can see how people who have a real interest in something would prefer to have a high job satisfaction over money. My mum, for example, loves cats. On Saturdays she used to go and work for the Cats Protection feeding and housing Kittens. All of this was obviously unpaid charity work, but she really enjoyed doing it and I'm sure, if they offered her the least amount of money possible to survive and support me and my sister, she'd do that full time than work for double the money doing something she hated.

The only thing that I enjoy at studying at college is business really so this, merged with my interest in culture, is the reason why I've decided to study International Business Management at uni. Hopefully this can take me into a job that pays relatively well that I enjoy, giving me both, a decent level of pay and decent job satisfaction.
