I had to make a similar choice. I stayed in the same trade just had to move to another company, a lot smaller one. My gross income was cut in half. Due to the $14 wage decrease and the decrease in overtime. It was hard to adjust to but just like the man you talked to. Money isn’t what life is about. It’s about...
Family.
I missed out on the early years of my children, something I can’t take back, but I can change the circumstances and start spending more time with them.
God Bless
