You live in the golden age of remote work. Ask your current company if you can go remote or find a job that will let you, there are a huge number of them currently and so many of them are actively hiring. Get a well paying job and go live somewhere affordable. After stating this please know I am not trying to make light of your situation. I know there are a million factors that can prevent someone from moving, elderly parents, children with established friends, and a million others. Just saying that there are options out there. I would move to Bali if I could, but responsibilities are what they are. 60 hours a week though is not sustainable, whether you get a remote job or not, I highly encourage you to find a job where the workload is manageable. I was in the same boat as you and the long hours were pretty much killing me. One day I just decided to get a new job, now I work 40 hours a week, make more money, the job is remote and if I am forced to work OT I get paid overtime. Life is short friend, make decisions that will maximize your joy. Wish you the best.
