Discussions about salary compensation are so dishonest on this site. Everyone is so quick to say "its not about the money", yet it's easily proven to be the single biggest factor in any job. If your compensation were 0, literally 0, you wouldn't take it no matter how great it was. However, there are other benefits you could do without assuming everything else checked out. When your compensation is above a certain threshold other factors begin to weigh more. The only difference between people is where that threshold starts. This should be obvious, and thus renders these posts completely moot. I'm only ranting here because any honest discussion about salary always gets short-circuited by the "it's not about the money" folks. It's frustrating, and at this point it adds nothing to the discussion.
