Reminds me of something that my Daddy told me growing up. "Honey, just
find something you wanna do, cause no amount of money will make up for
doing something you hate 40 hours a week, week after week."

Glad I took his advice cause I do like my job (most of the time). But
I don't believe in doing 80 hour work weeks. I just did a 55 hour work
week and I thought I was going to die from it. I can't imagine doing
80 hours! LOL. Even when I'm "on a mission." The 55 hours was the
extreme for me being "on a mission." I'll never make it up into that
management level, but I don't really want to. I see what MY manager
puts up with and I don't want his job for any amount of money!

Luckily, I make a decent wage and due to some good sound financial
advice (Dave Ramsey!), I'm managing the money I do get to be able to
do the rides I want to do. I do know how much we spend on horses and
endurance rides and we could do a lot with that money if I didn't do
the horse thing, but I'd be heavier and sadder. :-)
