re: Got a job offer in the public sector today.

Have spent time in both worlds and at the end of the day people are people and your work ethic will determine your sense of satisfaction.

Time versus what money can purchase....is a matter of which of the two you prefer....one can have both and maybe time in the public sector, after being in the private may ultimately bring you to that point...having both as it could crystallize your eventual landing place

Good luck
