Income to debt/expense ratio > Income

But it is true that you could hit a "ceiling" of sorts without a higher/increasing income. That totally depends on what you want to do. Quiet town, less material desires, less traveling endeavors, by all means if the peace of mind and stability otherwise carry more weight, the more power to you.

I'm chasing/more heavily prioritizing the former. I'm going to gain more success by shedding expenses than trying to boost my income.

You've worded this far better than I could have done.

I'm at that stage of my life. I earn a reasonable amount, I've paid off my mortgage, got a few cars, and whilst I could chase a promotion and a larger salary, I'm thinking, what's the point? I've ticked my goals, I have a great work-life balance, and when I get to the end of the year and my 38th day of paid leave, I don't see a reason to change what's going on just to earn more. What's the fucking point if you can't enjoy it?
