They're the same per hour, but the absolute amount of money is still different. If you value 40 extra hours less than 60k, and you can somehow stay productive, there's no reason not to take the job that pays more money.

There are plenty of jobs that ask for 40 hours and pay 120k, and they don't have that much more status. (I'm not saying they're common, but they're not that rare either.) If you're talking 300k+ for that 80/week, then it might be worth it at that point, if you can get the job.
