Hourly is meaningless if you can’t choose more hours. If you had a job that paid $1000/hr but you only work 1 hr/week that is not enough for many people to live on.

So if you need a lot of money for your lifestyle the high hours/high pay job might be your only option.

There's always the chance you discover frugality, when you stand back, account for the expenses in time and money, and what you've gotten in exchange.

Maybe you'll see how that $20k car is twice as expensive to maintain as the $10k car. Or maybe you'll get a taste of life in a city with public transit that is faster than walking. Or maybe you just move to a cabin in the woods with satellite Internet and grow your own food.

But you'd have time to do another $1000/hr job elsewhere.

Depending how you come into the job a lot of places won't let you work 2 jobs, especially if you're salaried.
