When was the last time you applied for a job and got an interview?

I was on a salary of $550 a day with a bank. I left because how grim banks are. I have yet to find another job that pays that much outside of a banking circuit.

If meta is paying you high-end why would you give it up for something that pays you less?

Sure, because I don't value high-end living. A modest living is enough to keep me happy. If I can provide a happy, comfortable life for my family, we're good.

It would irk me deeply to set aside my values for the sake of a boatload of cash that I don't actually need.

Because principles are more important than a paycheck.
