I have my doubts about that, at least after a certain point. If there are no kids to put braces on and no sick family members who make substantial use of medical bennies, I think most people considering a job offer think primarily about money, and most people considering looking for a new job think primarily about whatever it is at their current jobs that has ticked them off at their employer or made them feel jittery about their longterm prospects there. "Total compensation" is an HR buzz phrase, but it is essentially meaningless to most regular employees.
