Some teens think that it is very good to get a well paid job, whereas others think that joy and satisfaction are more important.

I think that pleasure that you get from job is more important. First of all, work takes a big part of people's life so it is important to feel good all this time. Second, if a person feels good for a long time, good things will happen to them, since good things attract good things. Being satisfied and feeling good people will do their work much better.

At the same time there are people who say if a job pays you well you can compensate a lot of troubles that it might bring. One can afford the best medicine or travel a lot.

I cannot agree with the opinion mentioned above for a particular reason. Well-paid job can bring many advantages, however, if a person feels good doing their work, they do not need to compensate bad feelings that arise from the big-buck job.

In conclusion, I would like to say that in order to be content with life one should do something that they believe is great work. According to Steve Jobs, the founder of Apple Computers Inc., work that brings pleasure is the most important thing in life and I totally agree with him. Such a job will bring satisfaction, happiness and then, I am sure, substantial money as well.

In conclusionI would like to say that there are opposing views on this issue. At first sight it is really important to have a well-paid job but in actual fact work that brings satisfaction is even more important since it is done better and gives positive emotions. Thus, I support the idea of a job that brings pleasure.
