'Making lots of money is great but...': Wise career-man enlightens job seekers searching for $120k+ per year of the pitfalls of chasing cash instead of passion

Do what you love and you'll never work a day in your life.

It's rare to love your job. There are many folks out there who rue the moment their alarm goes off every morning, dreading the commute, the office chatter, the insufferable employees, and the managerial incompetence, but with every job, there's a silver (and sometimes gold) lining to each work day–Your paycheck.

For most people, their paycheck is the sole reason they clock in on a daily basis without complaint and a lot of people find themselves simply chasing a number on a check instead of chasing their truest passions. However, there are wise ol' rangers out there willing to share their sage advice with the money-chasing crowd.

Keep scrolling for the tried and true simplicity that one guy on Reddit decided to impart to folks looking for a 6-figure payout instead of fulfillment… and maybe question your own motivations each day to find meaning in every moment.
