It's difficult for me to even respond to this politely, but I'll give it a shot. > For now, for work I spend a couple of hours a week maintaining a website. So you have some sort of life where you have no responsibility and don't work. I can see how that might be difficult for you. "Go find something you love and do it," is the typical life advice. I don't get the feeling that you're doing that. I don't get the feeling an office will change that.

  Thanks for your insight. Have you come across any scenarios where someone without specialist skills has been able to thrive?

    You've described "maintaining a website" and dropping out of university, and those virtues have enabled you to travel the world. That suggests that this ability is independent of your skills. I honestly feel like I'm being trolled here.

> So you have some sort of life where you have no responsibility and don't work. Not exactly. I have a responsibility to serve my customers that pay to use the service and still work, just not as much as others. I have spent a lot of time getting the business to the point where it is now. > "Go find something you love and do it" - I don't get the feeling that you're doing that It actually is something I am very passionate about but it's solved the problem I set out to solve. There isn't much more room to develop myself with it. I'm thinking (hoping?) that employment may broaden my perspectives.
