109. Is the Stress Worth the Pay?
In today’s episode, we dive into a pressing question: Is having a high-paying job truly worth it? While many might instinctively say yes, reality can often be more complex.
Join us as we explore the potential pitfalls and benefits of high salaries, revealing the truths that can help you navigate your own financial journey.
Specifically, we chatted about:
- High-Paying Jobs in NZ: We explore the highest-paying roles according to Seek and how salary figures can differ based on various sources.
- Cons of High Salaries: Increased expectations and accountability, particularly for roles like CEO, can lead to longer working hours and a higher risk of burnout.
- Pros of High Salaries: Enhanced financial security allows for a better lifestyle, networking opportunities, and potential for earlier retirement if managed wisely.
- Real-Life Experiences: Insights from Reddit users who have taken pay cuts for better work-life balance, sharing their journeys and the positive impacts on their well-being.
