keep it short and easy, when your salary reach certain figure, expectation and demand will also rise to different level, what make you push is the stress of losing it as you couldn't afford to lose those figure so you keep on alert about either maintain it or rising it.

I guess chasing salary is limited, chasing passive salary only will become limitless. The goal is to create income without working

Usually people that earns a lot but working for people, they only will notice how rich they are when the time they retired because they don't even have time to spend their money by working day and night.

life quality? don't talk about life quality when you earning such a figure working for people

enjoy or not enjoy depends on individual, if this amount of money are used to spend on family , surely you will enjoy because you hope for the best for them
but if only on your own-self, sometimes you will ask yourself back why you work so hard unless your hobby / interest needed such amount of money to support then you will very enjoy

most of the people around me that earning 5 or 6 figures , majority of the work they need to cope is about making decision / provide solution and developing diplomacy skill.

Comparing with those operational work and paper work , the gap is huge but this is expected. Great power comes with great responsibilities right
