Stable income all day. Eventually, you’ll get burned out with sales goals and having to constantly produce and hunt. Been there, done that and burnt out in 5 years. I now have a salaried role with maybe $20k-$40k bonus per year max and I’m happy. I have health insurance and 401k match, vacation days and mental health days, sick days and peace of mind. I don’t miss the hustle culture grind at ALL.

I hear you completely. Stability and peace of mind are priceless, especially when you’ve experienced burnout. Benefits and a steady paycheck make a huge difference in quality of life.
I like unlimited bonuses. I know it's a but more unstable but it can push you to perform and get that extra $$$. The challenge keeps it exciting especially every time you hit the KPIs.

I get that - unlimited bonuses definitely add some excitement and motivation. It’s a bit of a gamble, but hitting those KPIs feels really rewarding!
When I was younger, I'd have leapt at the unlimited potential. Now with two kids at home and a third on the way, I need stability more than anything. I don't need financial stress on top of all the other stress I'm carrying.

That makes perfect sense - priorities definitely shift when you have a family. Stability really becomes the top priority amidst everything else.
Unlimited bonus/commissions all day. I'm a go-getter, so being able to set the bar as high as I want actually motivates me to work harder. I think the challenge would be figuring out the WLB when you know you could be working and earning more all the time $$$

Unlimited bonuses are great fuel for a go-getter! But agreed that balancing work and life is definitely the tricky part when the money’s always there to chase!

Steady paycheck. I do not do well with commission incentives. Too much stress

Personally I would rather have a standard monthly salary. Easier to plan bills etc
I much prefer a steady paycheck to unlimited bonuses or commission. In my younger years I was all about hustling and making as much as I could. Now I much prefer to know how much is going to be coming in each month.
Rising Star
Totally get that! Knowing exactly what’s coming in each month takes a lot of stress off. Hustling is fun when you’re younger, but stability really wins out over time.
