A little about me: 27, Male, Married to the love of my life.
Everything seems to be perfect now. But the only thing that always bugs me is that I just don't want to work 9-5, I just don't know how people do it.
My current job has a great team and a great work life balance, weekends off, office parties, good pay, etc. but at the end of the day, I am still expected to be “visible” at work. Be in touch with my manager, be engaged and all that stuff, I have no motivation to climb the corporate ladder.
I Just can't do that. I just want to do whatever I can and turn off my laptop by 7 PM and wait for the weekends.
I don't want people to have an idea that I am an irresponsible husband. I pay my bills, taxes, rents, groceries – everything on time. I had a great education, that's how I landed my current job. But am I not build for the rat race?
Anyone in a similar situation?
Anyone in their 40s or above who's been or in a job just for the bills?
Is it just me?
P.s: because of the above situation I am saving and investing aggressively to retire early.
