Surely depends how much you love/hate your job.
I'm (now) a permie on nearly 90k + bens but I don't enjoy the work. But the job is too comfortable to give up for now - I mostly know what I'm doing and it's almost 100% WFH. Ironically I was offered a promotion but didn't take it because...

Replacing Sky Q hub/router with something better
I'm desperate to fix ongoing WiFi issues in our house. The main problem is concurrent connections far exceeding the limit of 64 on Sky routers. We have problems connecting devices, even the Sky Q TV boxes!
