I would have to think long and hard about that. If the 40% pay raise would add on stress that would cause weight gain and shorter life span....no.
If it means that I would maintain the same amount of stress(maybe more) and have to stick to riding on weekends only....I would take it.
Lol - a raise like this would allow me to pickup N+1 so that I could turn into a spandex road racer, or tour the divide on a new MTB (what I really REALLY want to do).
But yeah, the stress thing bothers me. I don't want to get complacent by driving in a car everywhere - then not want to go anywhere on the weekends or do anything athletic. Biking also helps me manage my stress - and if I have a crappy day now - I take it out on the bike path.
