Today I was having a discussion with a person on the amount of times that people change careers as some people usually want to learn more in life while others want more money. We were just comparing some answers from say young adults to people who have already been doing something for say 5+ years.
The answers we saw was that as one gets older, in terms of money it’s more about being able to sustain a lifestyle as oppose to say making millions. I guess that isn’t too surprising of an answer. There were also some other examples of people changing careers specifically for money. Overall, they didn’t seem too happy as a result.
Of course everyone is different and I’m positive most people have had to make this type of decision at some point in their life. In my opinion, it should be more about growth if you plan to change careers.
