Maybe you just have a different set of priorities.
I feel much the same way. The bills are paid, there's some money going into savings, there's time to spend with the family, and I'm doing work that's fun.
OK, I'll ride that for a while. Could I make more? Maybe. Probably. Do I need to? Nope. Sometimes going with the flow is worth it for the amount of stress it saves you (and your family). As long as you are not stagnating and feeling unfulfilled and poorly compensated, I see nothing wrong with leaving well enough alone until one of those criteria changes or a great opportunity happens along.
