Most of the time I hear advice that a regular 9 to 5 job or other schedule of being an employee is making us a slave or at least depreving us from our time by keep us busy enough to not be able to do anything else. But what are other options that allow both enough time to spend on a personal life and make a good living? Most of the time, owning a business eats more time than being an employee. This is maybe a discussion about work life balance, or even being with or against the anti work movement.
I also refuse the idea that tells me to be absolutely frugal. Yes, I live bellow my means, but I also spen d money on my hobbies and what brings joy and meaning to my life. I also save up some money for investment but investing is the hard part when our stock market is too small.
The question is serious. What are the other options or other insight in the situation and its alternatives.
Question is open ended and you can add in more point of views.
Uhm, I’m not sure where you heard that, but treating it as ubiquitous is odd.
a lot of online “influencers” peddle this trope to get suckers to buy their “get rich quick” tutorial classes. Plays on the “You get to be in the know, don’t miss out” bits of the brain
That makes sense. Still seems weird to me that anyone would make an Internet post from this perspective, which seems to imply everyone already knows that jobs are for suckers.
A sales person speaks to what you want, not what you know. You know you probably need to work, but a part of you rrally wants to learn that one weird trick ro earn lots of money with no effort or to get ripped with Tai Chi.
