    Depends are where you sit on the food chain.

    Down low enough and lack of money means you don't eat (or get eaten). At that level money is *very* important.

    Rise high enough in the ranks where all your needs are met, then money becomes more like a score. Then Satisfaction is key.

    Of course, some people find money very satisfying.

    I'd like to think I can have both, but if I could pick then it'd be satisfaction. However, I can't be completely satisfied without money because I need to eat... And I am not satisfied in asking others for food, and scrounging off other peoples' scraps.

    But assuming I do have a decent income, I'd just like satisfaction.

    Money can lead to satisfaction until you run out. Satisfaction may lead to money if you find a line of work that you enjoy and get paid for it.

    I think money is more important because money brings satisfaction. On the other hand, satisfaction alone won't bring money... I'm quite greedy... I'd rather find a way to get both lol

      Money is nothing more than the return on the quality of your performance. Performance could mean the quality of your article writing, ebook content or the website itself.

      Satisfaction should be when you are proud of your work, money will flow when someone else agrees with you.

      Not to be insulting but greed will give you headaches!

    money is like air, you don't notice it till you don't have enough to breathe. there are plenty of people out there that have enough to breathe, but have no performance other than being born.

    satisfaction is a component of ego. you make your own decisions about what is satisfying.
    ie:
    panhandlers are satisfied living under a bridge. my grandfather was satisfied living in the house he grew up in, working in a bronze factory for pennies.

    greed is never satisfied. that is its nature.

      Money or satisfaction...

      Ok... the question will then be... what do you mean by satisfaction? It means different things to different people. The next....how much money? Again, everyone is different here.

      Whatever it is, you can choose to be happy and abundant right now. That's the beauty of it.

      With regards to money, flip it around and provide huge huge service and value to your customers and people in general... and things will flow for you.

      Just get specific on what you want, and make sure you persist at it and keep going even if the heavans came falling down

    As a human nature, everbody goes for satisfaction, but the sad fact is you can't be satisfied without money, they are directly proportional to each other.

    My opinion is both are very important, but satisfaction always goes first.

    I think they go hand in hand and I'm not saying materialistically.

    Money is a great thing. It's a portal to having a good life but in the same sense what good is money when you don't have fun with it?

    Yes, survival is important but you have to work no matter what....so find a job you like
