Here's your money briefing for Tuesday, March 26. voice-verified

I'm Arianna Aspuru for The Wall Street Journal, filling in for J.R. voice-verified

Whalen. voice-verified

Whether or not you believe the phrase, more money, more problems, our paychecks have a huge impact on our lives. voice-verified

But some people are choosing to take a pay cut. voice-verified

We'll talk to WSJ reporter Joe Pinsker after the break. voice-verified

Taking a pay cut can be a risky decision for your finances. voice-verified

But some people say they're happier because of it. voice-verified

WSJ reporter Joe Pinsker has been looking at the intersection of what we get paid and our happiness. voice-verified

And he joins me. voice-verified

So, Joe, what's leading to some people taking hits to their pay? voice-verified

And why has pay become something that's a little less important to some workers? voice-verified

And in your story, you mentioned also the fact that the actual work that people are doing is a little bit more important to this decision. voice-verified

Now, interesting work and work that kind of excites them, even though it might pay a little less, they're looking more to do that. voice-verified

And you spoke to some of these people who took that new job with lower pay. voice-verified

Why did they do it? voice-verified

And were there any other ways that their lives had improved since taking that pay cut? voice-verified

Yeah, I mean, it sounds great, getting that more time with family, doing things that you would like to do on a daily basis. voice-verified

But I'm sure that there are some challenges that come with this you still have bills to deal with. voice-verified

How do people do that? voice-verified
