> Did money suddenly become more important to you, or was there some kind of fallout between you and your employer, or did something trigger you want more meaning in, or validation of your work? OP mentioned that "everyone tells me i should [feel aggrieved]" "I'm currently earning £60K a year ($70K) and I'm beginning to feel "aggrieved", everyone tells me I should." So it appears that it is outside influences that have changed his heart towards his salary. His wording in particular leads me to think this. "Everyone tells me i should". Not "I told my friends that i was upset about my salary and they agreed".
