The Finance/Banking/Accountacy field is more than just IB....the following roles pay almost as well but with much better work-life balance:
(1) Banking risk management
(2) Banking compliance
(3) Product Controllers
(4) Priority Banking/Private Banking
(5) Finance Business Partners in big names IT firms
(6) Equity sales
(7) Fixed Income trading

In fact 6 and 7 can actually earn considerably more than ib. Darn hard to get into as well. Possibly harder than ib as there are simply less of these positions out there.
