Learn to make money. There will be a time when you are sick of your co-workers and your boss. Or you just want to spend time with your wife and kids. And you will need money to say "fuck it! I'll take a vacation for the next two years."


Maybe you should switch to a job where your coworkers are your best friends. Then if you're lucky you'll love both your work life and your non-work life.

My jobs in the 90s all involved best friends. Either they became best friends at work or they were best friends before we started. Going to work was mostly a pleasure. It was like hanging out with best friends and building things with them. Sure not everything was flowers and unicorns but even that, doing it together was great.

In the 2000s I haven't had best friends at work and while I've worked on some cool projects it's been a slog.


"making money" sounds pretty generic, do you have any resources?

Are you just taking on part-time contracts, writing ebooks/courses, stock-trading, or something else?


i was wondering the same thing....
