Ah, the age-old debate: intrinsic vs. extrinsic. I say, as long as the paycheck clears, who cares about the 'type' of motivation?

I think it's more about the money than the type of motivation.

If cash compensation doesn't scream 'extrinsic motivation,' I don't know what does. Gotta love the sound of those dollar bills rustling.

Extrinsic motivation is the way to go. Feeling the weight of that paycheck in your pocket is so much more satisfying than any 'inner satisfaction'.
