Would you go for a job that pays more with more pressure or one that pays less with lesser pressure?

Though most of us would be attracted to a job that pays more, especially during this current economy. But i think before choosing we should first go through things and see if we can actually handle the amount of pressure in that said job. Often times i have seen people who say they can work under pressure but end up quitting their jobs due to pressure. There are times where we have to consider our peace of mind as well. What's your take on this?

For me l can do anything for the sake of money. So in this case, l can choose the job with a lot of pressure but that high paying rather than a good job with peasant payment.

For me give me more job and more money without the pressure Lol. in this case, l might not choose any especially if the money with less pressure is too small.
For me though i would first see if i can handle the pressure cause the truth of the matter is that we all have different levels when it comes to handling pressure. If i am sure is something i can handle, i can go for it untill i have been able to save something reasonable before going for a job with less pressure. Then in a situation where i feel I can't handle the pressure i would simply let it go.

I will prefer a Job that pay less with less pressure because the work will give room for some passive income alongside and I am a type that doesn't want pressure on me

I basically can take pressure at work. I can work for a company which pays good but with more pressure. However, there is a limit. If I find the pressure is too high, I would consider changing my job. Afterall, health is my top priority.

I do not mind working in a pressurised environment as long as rewards are high. In fact my efficiency becomes better if there is work pressure and also better pay at the same time.

My last company was mineral Asia, there we were working daily almost 12 hours. We were not able to relax truly, but get work one after another. So I was mentally upset there and finally given them resign.

Whichever, I can handle both. If the first gives good pay despite the pressures and if the pressures aren't hard or difficult for me, I prefer it than the other one less pressure but salary small.

I would prefer to stay with the job with less pressure. I already sense that the job with more pressure would be more toxic.
It is given that big companies expect their hired employees to work under pressure. On the other hand, having a less pressure job will pay not enough though.

Over a period of time it gets tough to work under pressure as you need freedom to express and work properly so I will choose the job with less pressure

In my country, if I choose a job with less pressure, it will pay low. Due to the aftermath of this pandemic, I need to step up and work for three companies online.
