While I know that this sub is mostly about complaining about working conditions. I want to know has anyone here managed to escape the 9 to 5 working life to do what they want? I remember reading a story a while ago where someone got way too injured on the job where he no longer has to work. I don't think I want to go that extreme. But I would like to know if you or anyone you know managed to escape the 9 to 5 working life without being really rich.
