This is quite a generalization. It depends on how much you value and enjoy your work. And, every person's limit is different. There exist people on both extremes.
- kelnos 7y agoIt's a generalization that the data seems to support. Sure, there are always outliers, but in general, 70+ hours per week over several weeks to months will severely damage your health. Note that we're talking about 70 hours of actual work. Being in the office for 70 hours but only working 50 hours is what's more common, and doesn't cause the same hit to your health.
- notfromhere 7y ago70+ hours of sustained work per week is unsustainable, the human body largely can't handle it. SV has a lot of dumb mythology around working non-stop (i.e. Musk claiming he works 100+ hours a week), but what people usually call 70 hours is 50 hours of work and 20 hours of dicking around 'working'.
