It is believed that people should choose their jobs based on income in order to provide security for their families. Do you agree that salary is an important factor when choosing a job? What factors should be considered?
There are different aspects to consider when choosing a 
job
. To provide safety for families, some people assume that the income provided by a job
 is the main reason to choose one. Salary
 can be an important factor that can affect other aspects of life
 in a positive and negative way. I will  discuss some of them in this
 essay. 
To begin
 with, a high salary
 equals a wealthy life
. This
 could give the person and his family the welfare they need to pursue their good quality of life
 and  dreams. For example
, most people are content when having money to cover  shelter and food to eat.  Although
 money can be a problem, it could lead to some restrictions and not covering their basic needs. 
However
, if a person is happy doing what they like, salary
 moves to  second place.  Happiness is a strong reason to choose a  job
 for other human beings due to
 the stress and ungratefulness they can go through. There have been studies about how unhappiness can affect someone's role inside a company. For instance
, some individuals choose to be grateful and content instead
 of losing effectiveness when it comes to teamwork which can lead to stress and insecurity for the employee. 
To conclude
,  some believe that a person's decision for choosing a job
 is related to the salary
 equal to having a good quality of living, whereas
, happiness can provide more energy to work independently of the money people get for it. In my opinion,  high pay at work  should not be the only reason to accept a job
 because it can create unhappiness in the long term in a person’s life
