I am in a very similar predicament. I can rake in cash doing things I dislike or look elsewhere for employment. The conclusion I've come to is I either need to be saving the money towards some specific purpose (startup, long term travel, etc) or I need to look for a more satisfying job. The question I ask myself is can I do this for X more years so that I can properly retire (where X < 10)? And the reality is I can't bare the thought of doing it for that long so clearly what I'm doing is unsustainable. With that in mind, you might as well make a change now because why prolong the inevitable? This is something I've been wrestling with extensively for the last year or so. If you'd like to have someone to talk to about it please don't hesitate to reach out to me (email in profile).
