When you are tethered to a despicable job because of the big money you are paid to do it.
There is no easy removal of the golden handcuffs; you begin to tolerate them almost as if they were not there.

An analogy for the restrictions put upon oneself when they graduate from college, get a "career job" and a house loan.

This is where a guy gets to fist two chicks in the vagina at the same time while their urinating.
He is wearing the golden handcuffs.
dude1: you won't believe what happened last night! Two chicks came up to me and wanted to give me a double golden shower!

When a person has a high paying job that they are not used to so they spend all of their money loading themselves up with expenses and loans and are then stuck in a job they hate because they can't afford to leave it.
I would quit but I have a case of the golden handcuffs
