It has nothing to do with being happy at $60K. It has everything to do with being happy with different priorites. Most career regionals pilots have made that choice and you are getting mad at them because they arnt starving for doing it?? Whats wrong with you?
You sound like a young guy. I would suggest you look to a different profession if you're going to be happy making 60K a year, regardless of your reasons. I, WE AS A PROFESSION INCLUDED, didn't invest all this time and energy, blood, sweat, tears, and a little combat in between, too come back to a profession that has been torn apart and ravaged because of people like you. I suggest you go to Burger King or McDonalds. As long as you've got a college degree, and I'm hoping you do, you should have no trouble getting into a management program making 60K per year!
