I dream of doing something I enjoy for a living but I know that’s not realistic. Even just working LESS wouldn’t be bad, but I’m in the US so no chance at having healthcare unless I work 40+ hours a week.
I feel like I get burned out over and over and over again. I’m almost 30, and only make like 50k a year. I’d love to purchase a used sports car or something like that. But thinking about how much that would set me back long term for retirement (say a $20,000 car) just bums me out.
It just sucks. I know it could be worse but it’s hard not to wish I would’ve done something different when I had time for school (did go to school, business degree) like engineering, safety, something environmental. Idk I’m just so bored of supply chain and never having time off.
Like if I’m not gonna be able to retire before 70 what’s the point? I probably won’t live that long anyway.
