Take the path that lets you spend more good time with your family and friends. Those experiences add to the fabric of life more than money does.

Money buys time and freedom and security.
Actually it doesn't buy time or freedom, usually.
In my experience, most (not all, but most) of the people who have a lots of money acquire it by working long days and having little free time. They also have little freedom because they are so tied to their job.
Again, everyone with lots of money doesn't have this problem, but in my experience most of them do.
