I bet you would. Lots of jobs have components (such as extra stress, less physical activity, or living in a dangerous or dirty city) that reduce life expediency. Unless you pick the job which maximizes your life span, you would effectively be risking your life for a paycheck. Tradeoffs are impossible to escape, even if you don’t explicitly think about them.
In context, it seems uncharitable to read “risk my life” to include any risk small enough that taking it would still be consistent with valuing one’s own life far above $1700.
