In the early days of my career, I was discouraged when I see a job posting for a position that requires less education with a better salary than the one with a good education, for example, warehouse supervisor vs software developer. But my colleague and a good friend draw a very nice graph on the whiteboard and show me the future where over time the salary gap will be filled and I will be working with something that I am more passionate about. He told me that it will be a stressful job if you are working only for money. He told me to work in a field that I am more passionate about and be happy to retire.
Since that day, I have been telling my kids to always pursue a career in a field where you are passionate and be happy to work forever.
