Why do you all want to quite waging asap?
I have 4.1 BTC and a comfy desk job at the local surveying office, where i hold a permanent position as a civil servant. now i can work hard and recommend me for higher positions, but i dont. I do the absolute bare minimum lmao.
I dont give a fuck. Are you all burger flippers?

I just took a promotion at work and now my job is so stressful and hard. I think I fucked up.

I'm the same, as in I want to grow my crypto alongside working.

You are doing it right. Get another promotion ASAP. The trick is to get two steps up. Higher managers overload the first level intentionally to reduce new competition. Anyone who makes it past that by utilizing strong hatred, making the wagies suffer, is considered to be one of them, and gets part of the wagie loot.

I've got a similar amount stashed + a bit more in boomer stocks and ETFs. I actually think I kind of fucked up to be honest, I had a very cushy job driving trains and would make about $100k USD/year if I put in a little bit of overtime here or there, but the work in driving a train is dead easy and to be honest I enjoyed it a lot because most of the time was spent cruising through nice scenery while listening to music or a podcast. It almost didn't even feel like a job.

For some reason that I don't really understand now, I chucked that in and started an electrical apprenticeship, so now I'm making more like $70k USD. It'll double when I finish up the apprenticeship part and qualify, but a big part of me now just thinks I should have kept my enjoyable job driving trains. I'm realising that I don't NEED to make a kajillion dollars a year at work if my portfolio is as sizeable as it is at the age that I'm at now. I'm already halfway to retirement so why did I try reinventing the wheel giving up a job I really liked just to make a little bit more?
