【Weekly Topic 2025.04.20】High Salary vs. Free Time: Which Would You Choose

Floor 1 啊啊是谁都对 4/20/25 13:09

**Introduction:**  

In today’s fast-paced world, the balance between work and personal life has become a hotly debated topic. Imagine facing a critical career crossroads: Would you prioritize a high-paying job that demands your weekends and leaves little room for relaxation, or opt for a more modest income with ample free time to pursue hobbies, relationships, and self-care? This dilemma forces us to confront our core values, aspirations, and definitions of success. To spark thoughtful discussion, consider these questions:  


- **What matters more to you right now—financial stability or personal freedom?**  

- **How might your choice impact your long-term career goals, mental health, or relationships?**  

- **Is there a middle ground, or does modern society pressure us to pick extremes?**  

- **Could your answer change depending on your life stage or responsibilities?**  


Join us as we explore the trade-offs between ambition and leisure, and share perspectives on what truly defines a "fulfilling life." No answer is one-size-fits-all—let’s debate!

I only want to work in a haunted house in the amusement park. I want to work as a ghost to scare visitors

But if unfortunately I don't have such conditions or opportunities to work as a ghost, I would rather choose personal freedom

I think when we were in extreme surroundings, we could pretend as if we would obey the social norms. But we could insist on our own choices in secret

啊啊是谁都对: Welp... for example, are your parents in favor of your dream of working at a ghost house?
圆环之理: 回复 @啊啊是谁都对:Oops.... I'm very sure, when they know my goals, they will be against it fiercely (especially my mother, she is conservative)

**What matters more to you right now—financial stability or personal freedom?**  


Maybe the former... I always worry about not having enough money. And the most likely thing I will have to face is that I would be in a situation that has no financial stability nor personal freedom.

啊啊是谁都对: - **How might your choice impact your long-term career goals, mental health, or relationships?**  


Maybe mental health first. Because career cannot cure the mental disease. 

啊啊是谁都对: Could your answer change depending on your life stage or responsibilities?


Absolutely yes. When I was young, I chose personal freedom. For now, I choose money. If I have enough wealth, I would choose freedom again.
