When you have a “boring” job that don’t pay you enough but is stable with nice perks would you start freelancing?

Or would you just look for another job with higher income?

I quit my previous job a couple years ago after burn-out and had a hard time to find a new one once I started to look for it. I finally had 2 offers and went with the most boring one with a lot of perks. But not possibility to get a promotion or even a better salary. I know I am too senior for my position but I needed some security and peace of mind when I signed.

Now a year later, I am way too good at my job that I am not compensate enough for. But I am mentally bored. I have a lot of interest in a lot of different topics (finance, marketing, content strategy) but I don’t know if I should find a better paying job more aligned with my background (with the risk of leaving a peaceful job and burning out again) or if I should start some freelancing just to earn more money… but it seems like freelancing is a lot of work (I’ve always been an employee). I am a hard worker but I know that I have a hard time to set boundaries. But I am also tired of not being compensated as I should with my expertise and my resume.

What would you do? For context I don’t have children and they are not in the near future for me so I don’t have to think about this responsibility.

Looking for a captivating thriller political drama

Looking for a thriller political drama

I’ve loved Tempest that is my number 1 drama this year so far. I love it because of the plot and the tension between the main leads. I like the romance part, the chemistry between FL and ML. But also the orignal plot. And the tension.
