Jokes aside,

I find the more money you make, the more complex and expensive your desires become. I quit my career where I was basically a wage slave and just do warehouse work part time. Its easy, Im more fit, and its close to home so time spent prepping for work is pretty much from 8:20am to 5:15pm (Leave for work at 8:50)

Forget about simply the 40-60 work week, People dont include the time they spend in traffic and the time they wake up simply to prepare for work. And that all adds up. Im in a much better place mentally and physically and its enough for me to get buy. Sure I dont go travelling all the time anymore or buy the biggest and best toys around but tbh, when I was doing all those things I felt like i was doing it because it was what was expected not because I actually wanted to. I find I did these things too to justify how much of a wage cuck I was (oh yeah I need to go buy this to make earnign this money worth while even though I dont necessarily need or want it) I just want to be exist and enjoy my simple life.

Only annoying thing I have to put up with is during the holidays when relatives will be asking me when I am going back to my old job or if i plan on going back to school or dont i want a job thats more challenging? Like why? What for? Im happy where I am at.

What people need to realize more is that what works for some doesnt work for others. simple as that. Being a wage slave is status quo so if you arent one then you get treated like there must be something wrong with you.
