Willing to work for a house

Found myself looking for jobs again.  Used to be always about being where I am because it makes me happy...This main job is easy.  Pass a few meds, make sure no one falls and help people to the bathroom and changing them.  Easy enough.  It's the same thing everyday, 38-40+ patient load with minumum expectations of oh shit happening like when I worked in the hospital.  I missed that also, coming into somethings and never running out of stories of how your patient managed to make you facepalm 10 plus times in a night.  But I digress.  I did med-surg, a little cardiac. home health and long term skilled and short travel stints.  I want to do ICU and eventually get my NP.  I need cash now, I had happiness in the past with my job that was kinda shitty but was fun and fufilling.  Now I'm getting older and itching to buy me a house.

Morally I object to nurses who come in and work just for cash and look at patients as a paycheck rather than a patient but I'm getting older, bills are getting more action from me than anything.

Found a few high paying jobs across country in Cali.  I can travel, air bnb, rent a car or get an agency to pay for it and make due when I'm there.  The problem I have is what am I getting myself into?  Am I selling out?  I want to vacation with the best of them.  13 weeks and I'll be set for quite a while if I'm willing to put some energy into it.

I have some credit card bills and I'm paying bills for someone else also.  I suppose that I have to do what I have to but I feel like I'm going against all of my preaching when I was younger about working for happiness vs. working for just money.  I would rather have both but idk.  The jobs seem like stuff that no one else would want to do if they are willing to hire me direct for a job that pays so much.  I ust appplied and may not even get any responses back but giving that I have next to nothing to my name, I'm willing to get off my cushy do not much of nothing job just to go to work it out with heavy caseloads and/or heavy hospital loads.  I was in a rush to get back into the hospital setting and still kinda miss it but I'm willing to work one job instead of the 3 I have now only to have it all go to bills.
