For whatever reason, what you have come to learn was how I always felt from the start. I would rather make less in a job that I find all the aspects of it enjoyable.
Relaxed and comfortable environment, flexibility, great co-workers and great boss that I both like, company treats me well, no stress, etc.
I don't find I need all that much money to live comfortably and buy and do what I want. (computers/gaming, home theater, backpacking, skiing, scuba diving, pickleball, travel in general). And on top of those things I still manage to put away about half my income into retirement investments.

I'm similar, but a life of marginal disability has made things harder for me, and meant health insurance is direly important. I'm pretty happy to have found a place that is lower stress (can't imagine a job that pays and has no stress) as well.
- SirMaster 2y agoNo partner and no childern. Though if I get a partner then we will have dual income and no childern which to me seems like it would be even better. Maybe no stress is being too generous. I never really feel stressed though at work, but maybe I am just also a low stress person.
