I trained as a teacher which I cannot do as I find it destroys my mental health. I just cannot hack it...it did pay well- ish but not worth the money. I could have saved for a mortgage had I stuck it out but I would have been ruined.
I now work as a TA which is shite pay but semi permanent /fixed term. I am always skint and I get HAMMERED for childcare . However, I do love my job so that is worth it.
Has anyone sacrificed a higher salary in a similar way? Are you skint but happy?

To wonder if it's best to do a job you hate and get paid more or a job you can bear and get a shit wage?
