i tend to play fairly aggressive on the bubble for more 1sts because of the obvious amount of more money for 1st

I don't get this. ITM it's usually push or fold, so you should just get all the +$EV pushes, and fold the rest. You're not going to make -$EV pushes, right? So how can you play more aggressively than normal or whatever?

Thing is, you can play to just slip ITM and then take your chances there, or you can play more aggresive on the bubble to take command with the goal to come ITM with a nice healthy stack and take #1 more often than you take #2 or #3. The more aggresive style obviously has higher risk but if applied correctly should give you more money. The more passive way offers less variance but also probably less $$$.

Atleas thats what I think he meant :S
