Which is more important to you; your work or your salary?

Both Work and Salary are complementary and important .
Salary plays a survival and motivational role in our life .
Work plays an inspirational role to do and be Better Professionals .

both are important, you need adequate salary to live in appropriate living standard and you need good job that satisfy your self-esteem.
Also, the salary is not only for this reason, it has another psychological implication, it is the materialization of your success in your work, if you are not getting proper return, it will be psychologically interpreted that you are not doing well in your job.

Work is obviously more important.
However Salary is the biggest motivation to work.
if you are not rewarded for your work appropriately, then your enthusiasm will eventually fade off.
Both are inter-dependable.

First and foremost the reason why we work because we need a "salary"...that will compensate our needs as individual.
Negotiate Your Salary Negotiating your salary is a two-way street.
It's important to come to a win-win solution since it can set the tone for your work life with the future employer.
But wait until after you receive a job offer to start talking about salary.
Everyone approaches the process differently.
Use the tips below that you're most comfortable with.
Evaluate the Offer Wisely Identify the salary you can reasonably expect for the type of position.
A networking contact at the company may be helpful in determining this.
Identify your own salary needs according to your household budget.
Consider the job offer in terms of your long-term career goals, the work environment, and the benefits.
Talk it over with someone you respect.
Make a list of the pros and cons of the job offer.
Remember that salary is only one part of job compensation.
Often better benefits — like flexible schedules or excellent health insurance — make up for a lower salary.
Make sure the job description is clear.
Note your reporting relationships, authority, and advancement potential.
Communicate Effectively If you are uncertain if you want the job, state that you would like to discuss some items before you can accept the job.
Suggest meeting again to talk about the offer.
Listen carefully.
If the offer is less than you expected, let them know that.
State you are still interested in the position if they want to reconsider their offer.
Begin the negotiation with reasonable requests.
Be willing to accept compromises like receiving additional benefits in place of a higher salary.
These could include tuition help, training, more vacation time, a flexible schedule, stock options, a company car, onsite daycare, parking privileges, etc.
Negotiations should never become emotional or hostile.
Use your value, skills, experience, and education to negotiate.
Do not use your need for the job to negotiate.
Understand the Rules of the Game Don't assume the first offer is fixed.
Even if the interviewer tells you it is, it rarely is.
If the same figure is offered a couple days later, it probably is the last offer.
In that case, you can ask for a salary review in six months.
Or you can turn the job down, asking that they keep you in mind for future openings paying more money.
If you do this, remember not to burn bridges.
You never know what might happen.
Even when saying "no," leave the door open to negotiation.
(Don't use this as a trick to negotiate a higher wage.
When you say "no," be ready to lose the job forever.) When you reach an agreement, request the agreement in writing.
Review it carefully.

Work is more important than the salary because salary is one of the benefits you got from the company and it is not the only satisfactory element, appreciation , to be noticed , promotion and responsibility are other important factors

wok is important because if you good woks you have good salary

الراتب هذا رزق من الله لا يأتينى الا اذا اخذت بالاسباب ومارست عملى هكذا نظم ربى الكون لذلك فالعمل هو الاهم

you can separate those both factors, both of them are important, but some times you can sacrifice a little in of them for the other, depend on the case it self

For Me Both because we work for money and we got money from work so both are most important

I think work is more important to me, i go with like minded people here..

I think that the question is not clear precisely and should ask in revers way like “Is the salary before work or vice versa? Because I thing that the way you ask the question everyone will said work is important but fact when you test him completely different, but when you reverse the question like mention here you can estimate the measure of transparency, accuracy and quality of what kind of employee you prefer
