Same here. I make pretty good money, but compared to what this would have meant 20 years ago it is just enough to take care of my pension by the time I retire.

At the same time: if it were 20 years ago and/or the inflation wouldn't have been as high then this deal - and my income - would be that much lower.

So I guess it doesn't matter as much as it seems but it feels pretty weird to be 'rich' by my old standards but unable to have the work effectively for me.
