Peaking in life?

[Pyrexcup]

Think i might have one of my biggest peaks in my life from summer 2017 to summer 2019 during this time i was still at college but working so life was easy but more importantly i was finessing so i made alot of money during the period and thankfully because i knew it wouldn't last forever i saved alot too. fast forward to today I got a new job since laving college and moved to london but pay is shyt and i dont really enjoy it. also struggling with what i actually do in life, guess im in a slump i spend about 70% of my days everyday thinking of ways to turn the cash i saved into more cash which is kind of depressing

Work in tech, in business/compsci but if i being honest i kind of lost interest in tech ages ago. I want to go into my business but i spend so much of my time upskilling for my day job because i want to switch jobs end of this year

yeah i already know all of the jobs i can possibly do but the problem is i just not passionate about the industry as i once was i guess between upskilling and shyt wages it's all just i think the biggest problem is i was making too much money too early which has kind of ruined the perception i have on alot of things

a few thoughts:

- you could try moving to a SF/NYC/Seattle area big company if you're single and just want to save up a lot of money fast. yes these areas are expensive, but the salaries can be so high it's worth it for people without kids

- separately, maybe a job that allows you to work from home when you want would make you like your job a little more

I never want to peak as I constantly want to ascend in life from previous point

Nah you haven't peaked yet, you're in a lull that's normal.

College life vs POST college life is always an adjustment breh.

Keep grinding. Stay trying to save a little and stay active in your field.

If you just got out of college then you're no more than what 23? You ain't even close to your peak
