| Funny that you post the same idea right when I did. 100% agree, and I've experienced a lot and have thought about it a lot. Fancy house - who cares if your house has everything you like (quiet study, comfy bed, stove, espresso machine). View is nice, but prob gets old. Car - who cares. Driving a safe car with some good speakers is nice enough. Flying - even if you're traveling, you don't do it a ton. Business class is within reach for us peons with points if you really want it for overnight to Europe or whatever. It's not that much better. Everything else is basically the same. To get a good workout, you still have to make it happen and push yourself hard. To get a high quality girl, you still have to converse well, do fun things, and connect. Of course it's natural to want more more more. But Remote job with >$100k salary is basically living like a king and we are super lucky. |
