Big Decisions In My Little World

Of course I've been looking for work since losing my job in the beginning of July. It is already August 3rd. Getting older just seems to make the time fly. Absolutely I have been looking and I have found something that really, really appeals to me. I've interviewed locally and I've been up to New York. Everything is looking good except......the salary. This is the toughest decision I've had to make in a very long time. The salary is not anything to sneeze at, but it is substantailly below what I had been making for a very long time. On the other hand I haven't been excited about going to work in a very long time....yes like most people I know, I have been working primarily for the money. Now I have an opportunity to work for something I believe in with the chance to do something meaningful while working with people I really like and respect.

I am pretty certain I'm going to be given a formal offer later this week. What shall I do?
