One of the great sages of our day...Oprah Winfrey said on one of her shows, "When we are on our death bed, surrounded by our loved ones, we are going to have many regrets. Things we will NOT say: "I wish I had a bigger house. I wish I had a higher paying job."
The number one regret people express:"I wish I had spent more time with my family and the people who mean the most to me."
I accepted my new job and moved my family across the country so that my schedule is more 9 to 5, so I could spend more time with my wife and children. Oh, yeah, and the pension plan wasn't too shabby either.
