Golden Handcuffs: Trapped by My Own Success? 💸🤯

I’m in my mid-30s, making $150k a year—the most I’ve ever earned. On paper, I should be thrilled, right? But every day at my job in the banking world feels like a bad dream I can’t wake up from. I’m constantly anxious, always feeling out of place, and honestly, I dread every morning. The money is amazing, but it’s also my prison. I hate how much I’ve gotten used to this lifestyle, and the thought of leaving terrifies me because I can’t imagine finding another job that pays this well. I daydream about quitting, but then I remember there are people out there just as miserable, making way less. Is this just how it goes? Do I need to just suck it up and keep cashing the checks, or is there a way out of this golden cage? I’d love to hear from anyone who’s been here.
