Because when you make more money, typically you improve your chances of having more fun, and you implicitly have a job (hence more money), the future of the environment really doesn't matter and your company buys the tools for you. So, as with most things in life, get more money and everything else falls into place.

Well it's his(or her) company, not yours, so you should I think

Highly not true, imho! For me, making good money is a necessary (bit not sufficient) condition.

Agreed, but whatever problems you have, it'd be easier to solve them if you had money than if you didn't

Hmm, I don't know. I haven't had any. Money that is, not problems.

Salary increases have never made me a happier person. Think back to your first paycheque and your current one. Are you that much happier because of the difference?

If I got that salary today, I'd be a very unhappy person.
If I got today's salary then, I'd have been a much happier person then.
And while the first couple of pay cheques I ever got in my life felt heavenly, I quickly ran into money related issues. It took me so many years to buy my first laptop and my first digital camera - in fact I had to wait till I got my US job to do that.
Through some serious effort in the last few years, I've got myself all those things money cannot buy Now I just need those things for which I need money.
Next goal - an European holiday with Smitha! *sigh* That's gonna take me a while to achieve!
Regards,
Nish

Agreed wholeheartedly.
Having more money does not make my job more enjoyable. If my job sucks when I'm making X dollars, it will still suck if I'm making 2*X dollars. Even though I'll have more money in the bank, the majority of my waking hours will be spent doing something I don't like.

They are endeed important, but money are not a purpose in themselves, but means to an end. If you spend 90% of your active life making them, then what possibly could be that end? I would rather have more time for myself than more money. I would rather have more peace in my life than more money.

Making money and spending it at the same time - that's what I am talking about It's really easy to spend money!

Dont forget that money cant buy you all: your free time, family and your personal health.
Money has also a psychological aspect, every 100 more make you less happier. Its different if you earn after a raise 600 =(500+100) or 2100 = (2000+100)

I already have everything that money cannot buy. I just need the money now

It will be the future product, because it is easy and fun to use, will make more money (efficient coding). So there could be 3 answers.

I gave up C++/MFC for C# to improve my productivity.
I gave up writing C# Winforms code to use MyXaml as it improved my productivity.
My next step is to get more into Model driven development to move further away from the code-face.

That's something we did here, and it did not prove to bring so much I had expected at first. Most probably because we do not do it correctly, maybe also because code that is driven by a model is not something easy to like (it is like artwork done by a robot).
