My mentor was the second to object. He said I shouldn't quit without another job lined up because I'd miss out on leveraging my high salary when negotiating my pay at the next job.

I feel like this is objectively good advice though. At least keep an income stream.

...the highest I ever got paid was 15K euros, per annum.

When I read such numbers I go crazy, feeling completely worthless.

Imagine getting paid half of that amount he was getting paid! O.o

Its easy to feel worthless with figures promoted by sensationlist media and social networks. Do not allow this to diminish who you are - otherwise its doing what it intended: creating a shocking and depressing reaction from its readers.
