I've been at this job for roughly 8 years, I have moved up into a managerial position with the hours working perfectly for me; every other week I would either have 3 days off or 4 days off, the hours I work are 12 hours day, and starting at 6am-6:30pm (still able to see sunlight) and able to enjoy the day when I'm off (I love bicycling). There is a new position that I potentially can make more money, but since it's a new position it is required to works nights and other various hours, ultimately losing all my vacation time, seniority and hours I worked hard to get with this company. My end goal in life is to change career into the tech sector (programmer, developer, etc.) I am currently self studying (on days off) to make that change, I am weighing the trade off of giving up my present position for this other position, both position deals with the same environment, which I have arrived to dislike, but I want change and do want to make more money, should I give up my current position for more money and try to adjust with different hours or should I stay where I am at and hope for the best that I will be able to change career soon? Pretty much what I'm asking, should I take more money, add new skills (doesn't help with my career goals) or stay where I am at in my comfort zone with all the seniority, vacation time etc.

The only person who really know the answer to this is you. We can't possibly tell you what choice will make you happier in the long term; it's different for everyone.
