People are saying you're doing a disservice to yourself. Not necessarily. Remote work + my maturation as an engineer has gotten to the point where I can have OP's lifestyle, and it has allowed me to reorient. I now have personal goals. Some are semi-professional (side projects, e-commerce, art, music, etc), some are financial, some are personal. In a way, OP is probably close to a coast FIRE in general - can't criticize that! So if I'm giving less to my employer and spending my remaining daytime in My Goals..am I doing myself a disservice? Of course not - in fact, giving more to my employer would be the real disservice to myself.
