I was in the same place as you. I quit and now I drive a school bus. I am infinitely happier. I will have to work until I die, but it's a pleasant activity and takes only 4-5 hours of each day and I don't mind the thought of continuing this into my 70s or 80s (our oldest driver just retired at age 84).
Of course AI is probably going to fuck me out of this option, but AI will almost certainly replace programmers before it replaces school bus drivers.
