Lately, I've been thinking a lot about job satisfaction, compensation, and at what point one might effectively perpetuate their career - despite either hating it, not being satisfied with it, or realizing it's not what they want to do - because they're being compensated well. There seems to be quite a bit of occupational diversity on nubblies: English teachers, poker players, lawyers, traders, etc. How would you all answer the questions:

"How much money is too much money to give up even if you're not happy with what you do?"

"How shitty does your job have to be to cut your monetary gains and move on?"
