I have a smiliar work/life balance with a bit over 4 years experience and have my CFA researching funds, PMs, building models and providing investment insight etc. I'm pulling in over 90k + around 10% bonus. I'm in my late 20's and value my current workload since I do not work long days, but I still have the drive to earn more, even if it means longer days.
My 2 cents, you're fortuante to get an offer at a small AM fund. I say that because I've recently started applying around for a equity reseach and even PM roles, however I'm realizing how hard it is in Toronto! However, I have not tried networking, so perhaps that's why. While your comp may be lower, it could provide more upside later on. If the hours are substantially higher, i.e. 90/wk, then in my opinion i'd reconsider...but I somehow feel that would be unlikely. You can still maintain a work-life balance doing 50-60 hours a week, for example.
