Cool Hours building v Instructor Rating?

Hi folks,
Was wondering if anyone that has already made it could offer some advice on whether an Instructor Rating is considered more valueable than simple hours building (be it on SE/ME or on MEJet SIM).
Am at the usual stage now where the next decision could be crucial to making it. All advice is welcomed.

My understanding is that whilst an intructor rating is a good skill to have, to be an instructor is not all that relevant to daily life as a pilot (Not nec IR flying, maily VFR, possibly SE only, with things happening far slower and simpler than Jet flying). Would Jet Sim time be more appealing to an Airline, or do they simply look at Total time?

Cheers
FP
