What matters more in the long run, title or salary? I'm tempted to jump ship to a smaller firm for a bigger title. I know I'll sacrifice some cash short-term, but hopefully that title will get me a bigger earning potential.

Comp over title. Would you like to be a QB for division 3 team or Alabama? Catch my drift?

It depends on what matters to you most. Several years back, compensation was high priority to me. Currently, the title matters to me. If I get the title with a large compensation,that is a win-win. If I have to get the title with a slightly lower comp and bump up later, then I will consider that.

I took a c-suite role for considerably less money. Short term sacrifice for longer term gains.

Am I the only one who thinks cash > title? If/when you jump employers, the starting salary offer only begins what your last compensation was - given you stay in similar field. However, for experience vs. cash... then that'd make sense

Highly Technical Market Sell-Off - Though, it has picked up over lunch and I suspect that short term turn is in near. Old floortrader told me once, never trust a market that is making new session highs or lows during lunch. That's not normal. This might not be a normal day; but we do need to rebound to get another opportunity into the short trend. So, count on it. The last draw is more suspect as it hasn't been proven to exist yet. So, we will see how we look when we trade 9855.75 on NQ.
