Personally I'm more interested of hearing from people that work part time and still earn a good pay check.

- j45 13y agoYou bring up an important point. Making $200k/year is one thing. How many hours you end up effectively working for it is entirely another. There's cases where making that much means 6 days a week and 12 hours a day. 3700 hours a year of work instead of the 1900 that's full time... you make 200k/year, but it can work out to a little over $50/hr. On the flip side, if you're able to keep your income effectively tied to the value you generate (a portion of your salary based on money you make or save the company), the multiplier effect is a truer way to effectively boost the average hourly rate you have.
- autarch 13y agoI've had several jobs, including my current one, where I worked 4 days a week. I take every single Friday off, and I don't work extra hours the other days. I think that whatever it takes to make a high salary is also what it takes to negotiate this sort of situation. If you're valuable enough to the employer, they'll be willing to make a deal, whether it be for more salary or fewer hours.
