Right now I'm working about 29-32 hours with my current job and making around 40k. I understand OP, I hate working anything over part time hours, life gets very rushed.

I'm really trying to build up my forex currency trading account to around 50k so I can just live off of day trading a few hours a week.

If you don't want to work around someone elses schedule, really look into starting your own business of some sort. Rhodes was really smart when he started the glass etching business.


And yes 40k is enough for a comfortable life style in my part of Virginia thankfully.

That's a mentality of trying to justify being lazy. I'd rather work my ass off and enjoy being able to do/have what I want than being broke and living till I'm 100 y/o. Also if you see most of the 100+ y/o people alive today, it's the ones who worked their asses off their whole life. You don't hear of hobos living to be 100+ lol



Funnily enough you want those 80+ year old peoples #1 regret in their life is ? They worked way too much

I tried playing poker consitently to see if I could profit in the long run. I did ok, but still did much better with a real job. The mood swings are stressful as fuck and sitting in a computer chair for 8+ hours killed my back.

Not saying that it isn't, not saying that people should work 70 hours a week etc. Saying that to say you'll never work over 40 hours a week in your life is pure laziness. I mean a lot of rich people that don't have to work that much or get to retire early got to that point by working their asses off
