I can easily pull in 6 figures after taxes.
succeed in securing or obtaining something.
I can make more but I kind of settled on just maybe 100k a year and low stress.

to worry or think about the possibility that something bad might happen, that someone will try to cause harm, etc.
It makes it a little bit more stressful to actually handle the dogs if the owners are always like hounding you
