Tight Deadlines & Long Hours or Relaxed Timelines & Lower Pay?

How do you prioritize between a project with tight deadlines and long work hours versus one with more relaxed timelines but lower pay? Meeting deadlines and putting in long hours can be a challenge, but the financial reward can be worth it. On the other hand, taking on a project with more relaxed timelines may mean a lower paycheck, but it can allow for a healthier work-life balance.

Are you willing to sacrifice your free time for a higher payout, or is work-life balance more important to you? And if you chose the first option, how long can you last?
