I would have said I would take the money until recently. Lately I am like "F*@k that". The older I get (I am 30) the less time I seem to have to do all of the "other" things I want to do in life. Nobody told me it would be this hard to juggle work, play & family. What is a person to do?

Since I hardy ever work, I would have said more money about 2 months ago. However, since Codell Jr. arrived, I would say time.

Nevermind. Screw it. Give me the money. Working only 3-4 hours a day leaves me plenty of time.

I have plenty of time, and manage it well, so give me the money, and I will retire earlier, thus gaining MORE TIME !!

I'd definitely take the free time.... My days now consist of: School, work, lacrosse, boyfriend, BBS, and homework. I could seriously use some free time now and then.

honestly, there's a balance....but in my business, time to me is more important. it's why i didn't go work for someone else.

I would easily take the 20% raise, invest it, and retire way early. I would therefore get the money and time. The time is what makes you the most money.

The problem with that is that you don't know how long you're going to be here.

Exactly.

Plus, I want to have the extra free time while still in my youth, when I'm carefree and without burdens.

What good is free time when I'm 60 and using s walker to get around?
