My situation, as someone attempting financial independence: I don't mind work, what I mind is someone else telling me what I have to work on and when it needs to be done. FI will put the ball in my court. Once I have enough passive income to cover my family's living expenses, _I_ get to choose what I work on, even if it makes little to no money. But of course I will sometimes choose to work on things that will generate significant chunks of money.
- npsimons 6y agoI'll second all of this: if I wasn't getting paid for working on the projects at my day job, I wouldn't work on them. I've got tons of ideas and cool projects I want to work on (some I've even made decent progress on in my spare time), but I don't know if they'd be profitable, nor do I want to worry about that. I just want to code on stuff I like.
