contract or permie?

indecision here so any advice would be welcome.

I changed jobs about 7 months ago and its not been great but a recent pay rise made it seem slightly more reasonable.

However today I have been offered the opportunity to go for a contract role with a better company.

Rates would be about 85% of current salary but for only 6 months work. Good position with 'possibility' of extending or turning permanent but nothing secure and obviously no perks such as medical, holidays, sick etc.

Am i being lured by easy money and I should just forget it or should i look at reality that even permie roles are not secure these days and take the chance while i can.

Of course I may not even get the contract, but I reckon there would be a good chance of it.
