Absolutely. Money saves time and stress. You can pay people to do other things for you. You can afford to take a vacation. You can also probably afford a temporary job loss (unless you are mortgaged to the hilt). You can afford to start a startup in some cases. Still I am pretty sure you can find people who make $250k that are miserable, possibly because of the working conditions.

On the other hand, you might have a stressful job to actually generate that $200k, and you might have to live somewhere like SF with very high cost of living, and your commute might be stressful, etc.
