If you are single you should take job 1……. if you have a family then you need to take job 2……
If you have a family and you don’t like your wife or kids then take job 1….

The second one sounds like it is offering more then the first, and it just seems like it would be more interesting. And the being your own boss part is great. Best of luck and success and which ever positon you decide to take.

I’d pick job# 1, and definitely not job#2.

The reason I would not pick job# 2 is because a) it ***** to work for really rich people because many (most) are really demanding (jerks) and b) working with the government is a pain-in-the-butt because of all the rules you have to follow.

#2, since you would be your own boss.
