I've significantly downsized, from a high-paying to low-paying tech position. Not the same as switching fields, but definitely has benefits, and is perhaps less disruptive.
I'm definitely try to enjoy life now. There might not be a tomorrow. Or, you might find that once you've "made it", you're no longer able to enjoy it.
- johnnycarcin 8y agoThanks for the response. Just curious, are you single or do you have a family who depends on your income? If the latter, how did your family handle the adjustment?
- towaway1138 8y agoUnfortunately, my ex won most of our net worth in the divorce. (No kids.) I remarried, though, and yes, I'm still the breadwinner, although at least my latest wife works. That's kind of side details, though. If you have kids, you should try pretty hard to do right by them, in my opinion. Your wife, on the other hand, is perfectly able to get a job, too. It's all balance. Your kids aren't going to be that happy if you're miserable.
