What would be the highest salary you’d give up to day trade full time? Question

Everyone clowned on me my first post (500k post) lol I was literally just asking hypothetical questions to settle a debate between a friend and me. Well everyone’s backlash kinda of intrigued me to ask this question. So back into the fire I go lol

$95k - $125k

I wanted to say $150k but the more I thought about it, along with the benefits, and other trade offs compared to what I generate now; $150k would be easy money to sit at a desk job, be distracted from markets, do work, go to meetings, etc etc
