That ' s in Turkey . It ' s where western agriculture began and had farming about five thousand years before it reached Egypt . <| sep |> Ik lol gotta work on it 😂 <| sep |> Call it the Carl Cheffers rule . It protects teams from Refs as bad as Carl Cheffers . <| sep |> I ' ve had the moderately paying ideal jobs , and I ' ve had the $ 100 k a year less ideal jobs . Unless the job makes you completely miserable , I ' d take the higher paying job 9 times out of 10 . You can buy back your time to an extent . You can afford newer cars that won ' t break down , and won ' t have to spend days browsing craigslist trying to find something in your price range . You can pay people for services that would take you an entire weekend to do yourself . You can take nicer vacations , and a better job will usually give you more vacation days . You can eat out and afford healthier groceries . Biggest of all , you can afford to save for retirement . If i kept my ideal job I ' d have to work an extra 25 years . It ' s different for everyone . I ' ve seen my parents stress about money my entire life . My dad lives 5 minutes from work and it ' s a low stress , fulfilling job , but he ' s not happier than me .
