RE: The problem with not needing to work

in OCD3 years ago

I actually don't have to work, but, I do and I like it. I have worked hard to get where I am and it is very satisfying on so many levels. Professional, personal, and otherwise.

I take vacations and at one point traveled extensively for work, which with COVID, I am glad that isn't possible. I am pretty sure I would have not anyway. Every position wears after a while, but, I have found positions, just like a person can evolve a bit, making it more interesting or different or even challenging.

I am taking the opportunity to use this money to further build my portfolios so when I decide to quit and take that world tour all at once. Life has been good and I am always grateful.

I have several members of my family (there are nine siblings) that don't really need to work, but, made it a life-long venture to spend everything they had and change jobs when they felt like they had enough for a long time. Whatever the heck that is supposed to mean. Why not save until you never have to work again and then live on a semi-budget?
