For some people work isn't their goal, it's other things. So it's not "how do I find the job that will be the be-all of my life", it's "how can I get paid enough to fund the things I actually care about."
If you have enough money that you don't need to work for now—that's fine. Reduce your living expenses and it'll go even further.
When you need money, you can just get a job that you don't hate, cash your paycheck, and not worry about "passion".
- whamlastxmas 9y agoI'm pretty familiar with MMM and my frugal nature/minimalism is why I'm capable of being unemployed for years. My problem extends past just income though - I feel like I'm just existing without any purpose whatsoever. I think it's important to find meaning in the work I do because having it missing in my life causes a fair amount of distress and anxiety.
