I took a job that pays a bit less but allows me to choose my hours, and it’s made a huge difference in my life. Do you think flexibility is worth more than a higher salary?

At a certain point, yes. As long as that "bit less" doesn't drastically affect your quality of life, it's a worthwhile sacrifice. If taking it results in you stressing about money, it isn't.

Thinking more about finance side, it actually worked out the same as I finned to travel much.

I would highly consider flexibility over higher salary. You can never beat that

True and guilt-free flexibility is a huge benefit. The peace is worth a good chunk of my salary.

Never heard of guilt free!

It depends on where you are in your career. And in your life. I am supporting the family so I don’t have the luxury of taking less pay for a better hours! But good for you if you can do this as quality of life is what we are really all aiming for!

Very true! In my case is mainly saving slightly less which I happy because I am saving nearly 8 hours of travelling.
