I've not come across a male banker who is doing well and willing to give it all up. If he is doing well, he had the motivation to go ahead and stay ahead. That motivation is in the blood and hormones of the person - it doesn't go away no matter what.

In my experience, in whatever field you work as, the more senior you are, the more you earn, the more time, and freedom you have to adjust your schedules. You also get to work and lead teams, and develop young people to be better than you once were. There is a sense of job satisfaction. You define yourself and your existence that way. Work is probably most tough if you are at the analyst to VP levels (20-35 years old) when you are learning the ropes.

There is a way, and there are many examples of successful people with successful families. Its an issue of time management.
