Cool project for the minimum wage or a routine but well-paid job?

Question

It seems to me that people often face a choice: an interesting project that does not bring a lot of profit and a stable job that brings money, but does not bring joy. It's always not an easy choice. What would you choose?

You can have a well paid job and a side project at the same time

Answer

Well paid job - every single time. Stability is under-rated.

@killshiva I sincerely admire your strength in this matter, because I am periodically plagued by doubts, but I absolutely agree that stability is of great importance not only from a material point of view, but also from a psychological too.

@weynspire yep, it's true, but often people face a choice anyway :)
