I think he was one of the few characters that was actually doing better in the world where Jimmy Stewart hadn't been born.

Maybe financially, but he was a more callous person and his bar was more seedy gin joint than neighborhood pub.

Financially speaking in a world of depression and depravity a bar tender would be doing better than in one of wholesomeness and quiet.

Though notice while Nick is better off financially he is absolutely not happier in the alternate dimension.

Proud owner of a thriving bar, versus stuck working for some garlic-eater who gives away half the bar at the drop of a hat and can't stop refusing customers. What's more, he knew it from a vision he had as a a child. That's why he cut a hole in the icy pond and switched Mr. Gower's pills. Anything to screw up the timeline. He was also tapping Violet Bick.
