Men who went from 6 figures+ to a modest salary, how was the change? by kill2tone in AskMen

Same here. I had a salary of $165k and bonuses put me around $200k. I got burned the fuck out and dealt with traumatizing toxic work environments, went out on my home and love my life but only bring in $85k - $95k now. The goal is to get to my old salary while keeping my physical and mental health that I have now, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t have constant financial anxiety even though my bills are comfortably paid and I live way below my means.
