Needs V Wants. I need shelter but it only costs so much to full-fill need. Then if I'm get paid sufficient salary to cover all my needs then wants decides the utility of the next marginal dollar. If the value doesn't align with my want then I don't care. As you get older you realize your time is finite and you want to enjoy what you do if you have the opportunity to make such a decision. So if a job pays 20% more but requires more overtime or more stress then I'll pass.
