Would you rather make $5k/month doing nothing or $50k/month working 8 hours, 7 days a week.

ITS MORE ABOUT WHERE YOU ARE IN LIFE. IM OLDER THAN MOST OF YOU SO I VALUE MY TIME OVER THE MONEY.

THE WORK MATTERS AS WELL. I WOULD TAKE THE 50K IF IT WE MY OWN BUSINESS. THEN WHEN I RETIRE, I CAN PASS IT TO MY KIDS AND THEY CAN GET 25K FOR HALF THE HOURS STRAIGHT OUT OF SCHOOL WHILE THEY STUDY FOR DEGREES.

AT THIS POINT IN MY LIFE, IM TRYING TO SPENT MORE TIME WITH MY FAMILY.

I get it

but people saying 5k talking about flippin it into 50k like that alone dont take time are being dumb. If it were that easy noone would work and wed all be rich afyer our first year in our career. Yet 98% of people still working.

50k a month, 7 days a week. That's easy. I feel like right now is a great example of why. working during the November-January holiday period is a pain. Depending on what type of job you have, it's easy to be sitting around in late November/December doing jack shyt. It's terrible. Doing nothing sucks. I'd rather be working. Even if I was at home getting 5k for nothing during the holidays I'd be bored as fukk.

I already work way more than that for way less. I'd contemplate doing nothing for 10K a month, and just live as a travelling/tech Youtuber and build a brand and supplement that, but a few years at 600K? Sheeeet. I'd retire 5-10 years after that and become a dapper dirty old man with no problems.

Who the fukk has 12 million to retire lmao

Talking about lifetime earnings. The lifetime earnings of someone making $100k/year is around $8 million, and that is working 40 years at the minimum. Wanting to retire early, you'll need lifetime earnings around $12 million (assuming you'll retire at 50-55). And you have to think about aging, you may live into your 90s as well.

BRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOKKKKKKLLLLLYYYYYNNNN
Basically making under what I currently make monthly with unlimited time for myself is cool plus my job is already relatively laxed so I'll just continue working and take more days off.

I'm not greedy for the 50k a month. I prefer having weeks I'd like to take off. Plus that's 600k annually which is mid considering you have to continue working 8 hrs per week forever.
