Mine alone isn't. But my wife just got a new job and a big promotion last year, so as a household we're still doing fine. Time for me to level up and do the same thing.

Oh absolutely not! And any chance I get to discuss this, I end up painting a target on my back from management. There’s always endless excuses or changes.
I’m not doing this for the money and it’s not THAT important to stress out my daily life
Yes it’s very frustrating to continually be on the same pay grade which dictates one’s quality of life too.

I have been approached by 3 separate HR people at a startup company to interview for a position. I already have a fulltime job that pays well and I only started 6 months ago too. Anyways, the pay was intriguing and the job was a high level scientific advisor so I did interviews. At the last interview, at the end I was told the job was for management but I prepared for a different kind of interview. I am waiting for an offer or rejection letter. I feel peeved that they wasted my time. Red flags?
