Helps that we are pretty good at what we do so the company remains happy, I'm pretty sure they know I'm slacking off and not doing much but they overlook it because of the significant shortage of people that are senior and good at what they do.

The London wage market for tech is skewed compared to the rest of the country.

Getting these high-paying 6-figure paying jobs is literally 60% hustle, 20% skill, and 10% luck. I feel imposter syndrome daily especially since I find it very difficult to fit in socially with the autists in this industry. My best advice to the other anons in this thread is to stand out somehow and hyperspecialise in something that meme companies pay out the ass for. Fintech is a great start.

Start at fintech startups, especially smaller ones. They are more willing to take the risk and train someone junior than large meme ones who are essentially soulless corporates but cleverly disguised.

The reason why they do it is to have an arbitrary measuring stick to use when picking between 2 "good enough" candidates.

I passed that period pretty quickly, it’s been really nice since then. As far as anyone’s aware I’m always working since I respond to emails so quickly, when I fact I just have my laptop open next to me while I do whatever I want. A few times a week I’ll actually need to get something done, my boss assuming it took me an entire day when it actually took me 30 minutes. My favorite part about this whole thing is I literally send an email to my boss every week explaining the work I got done, no matter how short it is. He loves it, and has never once had a complaint regarding the content, or said anything about my work output. I don’t lie either. Sometimes the list is really short. I’m physically impossible to fire for “time theft” or anything like that because I’ve been very clear about how much I’m doing, and as far as anyone’s aware it’s been approved level of work.

I don't know about you bros, but working a job that isn't intrinsically meaningful to me is a version of hell even if you only have to put in 4hrs/week. Pretending to work gets old fast. I urge all my bros to try to do something that gives in meaning, time is the ultimate resource.

Passive income is great. 8 years ago I bought a bunch of crypto mining contracts and had let the amount slowly pile up, was able to acquire a lot of BTC for below sale price. But these days mining isn't anywhere near as profitable as it was and most mining companies stopped selling lifetime contracts.
Now I get most my passive crypto from casino dividends, they pay ownership tokens for every bet placed, then every day they pay out a large portion of their earnings to token holders. It's cheap to get started, but token accuisation is all based on how many bets you place so you should play around with the free BTC it gives you until you find what auto betting settings work best for you.
