I'm grateful that I have these options, but I'm not very “happy”. It's just a job and I use the income to pursue things outside of work. Anyway, I want to eventually quit work and start my own business and this sub motivates me to do so. I don't want to rely on my employer anymore for income.

Are there any other decent wage earners that feel like they are in a similar situation?
