Would you take a $5 paycut for Dream job

I will be graduating this December with my BSN and I have 2 full time job offers contingent upon passing the board. Here is my dilemma,

Job 1: step down unit with 12 weeks orientation with the possibility of cross training to ICU after 2 years and pays $5 more than Job 2. I love night shift and its differential is 20%

Job 2: my dream job which is in SICU! however pays $5 less and pays 10% differential for night and its also 12 weeks orientation.

So should I take job 2 because of my love for trauma patients and my desire to be a CRNA or take job 1 to develop my skills and then transition to MICU after 2 years.

So please guys help me out, would you take job 1 or job 2 if you really want to be a CRNA.
