Formerly I was employed as a networks engineer and left that field at age 21 to pursue a career in audio engineering. At the time my salary was around $38k/year and I left knowing well that audio engineers generally do not have the as high of a pay scale as networks engineers do. My reasons were purely for satisfaction in life. The drudgery one has to put up with can only go on for so long and if you are someone who has any real balls I would think you would change your field to satisfy your conscience, as opposed to only your pocket book.
