What salary band applies? I understand you can't give specifics, but a rough guideline as to what you're thinking would make it far easier to come to an informed decision.

There's no point in getting to an interview stage only to find out you have to take a pay drop if you want the position.

In an ideal world I'd happily work for nothing in a job I really enjoyed doing.

In the mortgage, bills, wife, child world a pay drop would not be conducive to a stress free life

you gotta quit the mortgage, bills, wife, child world and walk around in a daze assuming that all worries of the financial burden world will slowly disappear into someone else's bad debt account!

PPP-Pit Boss

No we mean "advantageous"
The ability to market highly successfully is of higher importance.
