I went through a similar situation recently and it was interesting how one of the companies talked about compensation increase and dangled that carrot in front of me while I was trying to make a decision.

Less money - more time with your family

Yes but you're assuming the OP has a family, I think he said he was 25? Personally I'm glad that isn't a factor for me, seems marriage and kids are something for someone who has an established career and doesn't want to move up.
