[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your question doesn't make any sense.  If cutting back still allows you to save enough to meet your goals then your question is really [b]does everyone just max out their earning potential and the answer is obviously no.[/b][/quote]

OP here. First of all, the responses have made me laugh - yes I am nutty! lol

You actually phrased it what I was asking. I just don't think I have met anyone that was open about not maxing out their earning potential without family money.

Plenty of people do it.  The jobs forum is filled with people that left biglaw for govt or in house.  Sure, most wouldn't make partner but they could have landed at a midsized firm but still putting in significant hours.  [/quote]

+1 We both resigned big law partnerships, cut our annual income more than in half. We have more than enough saved, more than enough to live on, donate a ton, volunteer a ton, kids are set. People killing themselves to make more than more-than-anyone-needs are ridiculously stuck on Lucy's assembly line.[/quote]
