Enviroment vs Employment

It's funny how it's hard to find the ideal balance between between work environment vs employment. I know I would love the environment of working in the outdoors on my sailboat. However, the work opportunities to make that possible are not always close to what I love to do. What I mean is that my buddy, Neil Cragg, has a good opportunity for me to help manage the finances of his business expansion. It's part-time work I could easily do from my sailboat, but, it's not the work I feel "called" to do. Yet, if things work out I could be helping a lot of young people be trained for the new business....that would be cool.
It's always a conundrum trying to figure out the balance. How's your balance.
