I did it! Went down about $5.00/hour and couldn't be happier! The sooner you can get out of the corporate world the better it'll be for you. I'm with a non profit am take great pride in going to work everyday helping ordinary people and NOT making some prick wealthy!!!

[@hotdogs5265]

I did it. I took a $6 an hour pay cut for a job lower stress, closer to home and great hours so i can be home more with the family.

[@tdub7301]

This guy has it figured out financially. I make 150k, wife makes 60k a year and we don’t save money. Have a kid on the way and I’m nothing but miserable at my job. Would literally do anything else. Doesn’t help the job is dangerous and most stress I’ve ever been put Under. We have a budget problem and rent isn’t too bad but def feel stuck with no direction. Love this show. Thanks for content

[@keeplifesimplestupid]

Went from 80k a year to 41k. I have my life back and don't spend 14 hours a day at work.

[@hotdogs5265]

Right on. Money is not the main factor.

[@gloriaalex11]

Twice in my career I've taken a pay cut to get out of a miserable job. Neither cut was anywhere near as much as this caller, and I didn't have a spouse or kids to factor in. Many years later, I still feel that I made the right decisions ... but I'll admit there are times when I miss some of that money. 💸

[@gina9684]

I know two people who left six figure jobs and they both are living happily ever after.

[@YanilleCastillo]

Definitely a decision to pray about

[@gina9684]

Yes

[@MShah-ch6st]

I'm just thinking the same career change path, suddenly this video came out. What a coincidence.

[@CatherineLynn-f9n]

I’m a 25 year old female and I’ve been contemplating this for a year… I’ve worked for the same company since I was 19 and there are amazingly hard to beat benefits, and the longer you stay the better the benefits get. But I’m miserable slaving my life away :( I work 50 hours a week (not counting the 2 hours driving each day) and my first day off I have no energy to do anything but sleep. I live in a small mountain town and I’d love to do something seasonal/less hours for a while. And connect with my community.. would it be worth the risk? Would I make enough money to survive? Would I even be happier? Ahhh it’s hard…

[@Outdoorsnmotors]

I am thinking of doing the same thing as I work for a corporation and it sucks, yes they compensate well, but you’re treated feels like it’s taking a toll on my mental health. I work shitty long hours. And I personally don’t support corporate America.

[@getinthespace7715]

If it were me... I would fund the switch first. Save $50k or more a year for a few years so that the investment can supplement your income. Or I would take the job and setup a side job to make more. I'd invest all the money from the side job until there was enough there so the earnings from the investment was offsetting the income gap. Then I would slow down and relax a bit.

[@YanilleCastillo]

Cuz you can impact so many people in a good way but yet your family . Pray 🙏

[@goldenlifelove7251]

I'm considering a $20,000 pay cut. It's such a tough decision

[@MrLGD1234]

Have you made the leap?

[@neezuss]

“You can always go back to investigative work.”

[@jaqueitch]

Instead of worrying about other people's kids, PUT YOUR FAMILY AND CHILDREN FIRST

[@AnnikaOBrien]

They’ll have $3,300/mo less than they do currently. His wife could get a job making that much if she’s not already contributing.

[@brandonmack6827]

The jump from 90 to 50?

[@DominickSpano]

I think if he can do it and still provide the family a serviceable lifestyle he should give it a try.

[@kevinb8881]

The short answer, no!!

[@slayton5us]

It 10 years it could be 80k, dude with any normal inflation you are still losing.

[@alfredoh2009]

This Ken caller is making a mistake, teaching is a thankless job in USA today, just look here in you tube why teachers are quitting? Don't do it

[@joeldiaz5857]

Agree-- the level of disrespect is beyond measure.

[@DominickSpano]

This is a silly question, but do Ken and Dr. John and the others have makeup artists and hairstylists and wardrobe before they start the podcast b/c they always seem to look essencially picture perfect. I used to work on that side of entertainment so I think of these type of things.

[@JohnBrown-ig5nc]

I'm sure they do

[@MooMoo69556]

You don’t need that to look good tho… Just dress nice, and use skincare and stay well groomed. Duh

[@djdimsum852]

Bad financial decision imo. He’s gonna regret
