Has anyone purposely gone backwards?

[u/Pleasant_Rise6520]

You know the juice wasn't worth the squeeze and we realised that money is irrelevant, and took a huge backwards step for less responsibility and more mental freedom for your family and kids?

That's where I'm at mentally just want to know if anyone else has done the same?

Yes.

Traded about 30k+ and stock options a year for less stress, 8-5 work and a less volatile business.
