Good point. But, if I made 20% of what I made now, I’d still have to give up 90% of the 20%, and I’d be even worse off. Isn’t it a better solution to just figure out how to make more money and succeed in spite of the bastards?

Is there really any other solution that can actually be implemented?

…before your leisure activity becomes commonplace. And boring.

Even if you love your job, you’d never step foot in that fucking office again.

Although your point is well taken, I think that there is perhaps one intangible that you are not factoring in: boredom.

Even the most unusual behavior (i.e. leisure activity) becomes commonplace if repeated often enough. You can only shoot so many baskets, or drink so much coffee on the patio, or fly off to Lake Como so many times…

I quit my 10k/mo job to trade currencies, stay at home and it’s working out great. There’s true value in what you’re talking about here.
