At this point in my life, I would take option #2.
I am looking to build a financial foundation, and this is one way to get it.
Plus it would keep me busy, which is always a good thing.
I have a lifestyle that would suit 40K, but a little more money is not a bad thing.

That was me 5 years ago. I felt like I had lot's of time on my hands, and not enough money to spend during that time. I still find that right now I could use the extra money but that's mostly due to the fact that my wife is in college and not making any money. It also helps that she's pretty busy with school and all so even if I'm around we can't spend the extra time together unless I want to learn a bunch of Pharmaceutical drug names. Once she is in the work force and making some money than I'll really have to think hard on this one. If I spend extra time at work I find that I usually end up having to spend the money on something special for my wife to make up for me not being home. If I only work 8 hours everyday she seems to be much happier with me around and doesn't ask if we can buy things we don't need. I also find I can use the extra time to do things like cook good meals, and do home improvements myself, whereas if I'm working lot's I end up spending money on hiring out extra work, or eating out.
