Career choice can have a very large impact on your quality of life. Careers vary a great deal on each of the following dimensions:

  • Job satisfaction — How much will you enjoy your work?
  • Earnings — How much money will you earn, after adjusting for things like cost of schooling, taxes, and retirement benefits?
  • Work-life balance — How much time and flexibility will your job leave you to pursue other activities?
  • Social value of work — How much will society benefit from your work?

Each of these can have a large impact on your quality of life.
