My career changed vastly but salary didn’t much

Today’s society really value money over happiness in many ways. I know many people who would gladly stab someone to get their way to the top of the ladder chain and make a name for themselves so they are established as the next wolf of Wall Street. Of course, I’m not against making money, but as a person who has been on that route before: I value my happiness more than I do earning a tonne of money, and being unhappy in my job.
