Thankfully we were smart with the money we made 2 years ago so our income, which is now just about $200K doesn't feel so bad, comparably.
I thought we were posting individual salaries, not HHI. Or are you a SAHM and posting your DH's income?
DH's individual salary. I SAH.
Are you ashamed that you SAH? Otherwise, just say $0 because you stay at home or stay out of the discussion.

Another attorney here. Base is $200,000.
For my years of experience, efficiency and quality, no. For the incredible flexibility and low stress, yes.

I get paid $70K as an attorney at a nonprofit with 5 years experience. I would like more because it's hard to live on that with a family in the city, but I love what I do and don't think I'd be as happy at a firm.

Right, you can decide that others are overpaid (not you, of course!) because you know exactly what they do on a daily basis. Seriously, stop judging and trying to talk yourself into liking your job.
I do like my job, and throughout my career, have worked at several other government agencies where I was asked to do a lot less, and everyone else around me did a lot less.

I think I am paid right and they are overpaid.

When does 200k ever feel bad?
Rich people problems.
You live up to your means, or down to them...whichever way you tend to view it.
