>you have $5k remaining each month for when you decide to quit your job and start your own company, giving you autonomy that is the #1 factor for happiness and an all around healthy life.
- nommm-nommm 10y agoEhhhh... Personal preference, I don't want autonomy at work. I'm much happier being a cog in the machine, going to work at 9, leaving at 5. I'm a software engineer and work is a means to an end for me, to feed my family, give me financial security, and enable me to do the things I want to do when I'm not at work. For the most part I enjoy what I do but I would strongly prefer to spend less time at work and have more "me" time. I certainly don't want the responsibility and stress of my own business. The epitome of happiness is certainly not starting your own business for most of Americans.
