have the job of your dreams and always be broke

Doing work you genuinely love every day provides fulfillment that no salary can substitute
Being broke just means your expenses match your income — you can still live a full life while pursuing your passion

have a job you despise but loads of wealth

Enough wealth lets you quit the miserable job and pursue your passion freely, turning the trade-off into a temporary strategy
Your passions can thrive as hobbies outside work — a job does not have to define your happiness or your identity
