...is there anything I can do?

need to cover 8000+ bytes worth of transactions... That fee is going to end up being something like 0.01+ BTC at current fee rates... Undecided

I KNOW! It's crazy! Thanks for your response! The transaction actually just dropped. Do you (or anyone) have any suggestions for a better way to have a wallet which accepts daily payouts from mining contracts (i know i know cloud mining contracts could be a ponzi scheme... it was on a whim)? I can't think of any way to get around the issue of anytime I want to consolidate, it's going to be a large transaction for a small amount with a high transaction fee

Thanks in advance!

the wallets don't matter, the fee is determined based on the network and size of your transaction. and you are receiving a lot of payments. they are not that small though. each worth nearly $30.
the only (safe) option is to do what you did here, send with a small fee and wait until it is confirmed.

there is a riskier option which works best for smaller transactions. and that is using a third party wallet. like using exchanges if you are a trader. you receive your funds in their wallet, you can even trade with those and make profit and when it is accumulated to a bigger amount, you make a withdrawal.
although you should do some calculations first. for example in this tx you shared you have paid a 2.5 S/B fee or 0.0002BTC but it will be stuck. withdrawal fee of exchanges is usually 0.001BTC and above! but it won't have the being stuck issue.
