Do you feel like your paid enough for the work you do?

This ain't a brag thread about how much you make, but rather if you believe that you are paid enough for the work that you do

Some of y'all are lucky as hell working from home making 90-100k a year and probably put in 10 hrs a week of real work

While others make 70-80k a year and are working their ass off and should be getting paid more

For me I'd say no I don't get paid enough for what I do. There are 25-30 people on this planet who are certified to do what I do with the airspace I have, and during crazy peaks I'll drive home and realize "nah man I need to get paid more for this chit, cause that was crazy"

Hbu.. are you hustling the system? Or are you grinding away and realizing you're kinda getting fukd

Yes, but I can still make more working less or equal, so no.

No because I work for the government. I could make significantly more if I went to the private sector

Overall, I feel I'm compensated appropriately for what I do. Like 90% of the misc I am the CEO of the company I work for so the pay is pretty good, but I often dream about taking a more simple entry level job without the challenges and stress of what I do now.
Once you get to a certain point, the money doesn't really matter and you just want a better work life balance which I don't have.

Yeah but I don't want to game the system, I want to contribute greatly to society and be appropriately compensated. Can't even submit an invoice in good conscience if it feels like I haven't put the work in, I have slow weeks but then deliverables on certain dates and will do up my invoice right after submitting stuff to minimize guilt.

Most days I don't do shyt, so I'd say that I'm paid enough.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.
