A high paying job that conflicts with the interests that you value. How would you make that decision?

[Trush Jodie]

A friend of mine is doing a job that pays him just basic minimum wage, but the job gives him time to participate in his religious activities. He is a strong leader in his religion and if he is not around, things might not work well in his place of worship.

A job comes to him that would give him double the pay and exposure to some valuable people in politics. But this new job opening won't give him any time for religious activities.

If you were in his shoe, how would you make that decision?

That depends on how big the conflict is. If the person you mentioned is a very religious person, may be s(he) should look for another job.

I would forget religion and get the job. I am not a religious fanatic to give up a job that would pay me well for religious activities.

I might just let it go for my peace of mind. I can't even enjoy Money that I'm not at peace with

This generally depends on what each individual places value on. For me personally, I would take the job and dump my religious commitment.
