But I might get to be a millionaire one day ! I don't want to pay for these losers when I stop losing !

I'm happy at my day job, as I could reasonably be.

I come from one of the shittiest neighbourhoods in France (91 RPZ), but still, I was raised there, so my views on work are some of the chillest on the Western side of the world. I see it now that I live in America, people like to defined themselves through work.

Plus, I am smart. Reasonably so that I could get a Masters. That helps.

I work in design in one of Canada biggest banks. I worked hard during my studies, unrelated to what I do now, but I always found a way to make it work. Now, I have enough XP that Google and Microsoft come knocking.

If they came before COVID, I would have had happily slavewaged there. Having a FANGAM on the resume is very cool in itself, and I always found myself to be geared towards these types of objectives.

Now ? I don't give a shit. Give me a "better-than-average" pay, 35 hours of work and near-to-perfect work-life balance and I'm a happy man.

I'm happy because I get all of these. I have time for my leisure, my reading and shitposting on 4chon.

Really, you have to just find work interesting enough in an area where there's not so much kool-aid to drink (governments, banks, and generally un-sexy jobs are good for that) and that's it.

Remember Anons : you'll die too. What aspect of your life (work, family, fitness, wealth, spirituality, artistry, sex) do you want to maxx out ?
Finding the balance towards what counts for you is the key of a good life.
Realizing what should TRULY matters is the key to a great life.
