I thought the same thing until I sustained it for 14 years. It’s interesting how perspective changes with circumstances.
When I was in my 20s I remember saying “how do these old guys commute for 4 hours a day.” Then I hit my 30s and had kids and wanted good schools and whatnot, but my income didn’t jump. So I commuted for a long time. Happy I don’t do that any more.
- thumbuddy 3y agoI'm not saying this to be mean but. 5 days a week, 50 weeks a year, 1/6th of the day driving for 14 years is roughly speaking additional 1.6 years of your life spent driving to/from work. Average life expectancy is <75 years in the us. IE 2% of your life was getting to a place to make money. I hope the money really helped your family and they appreciate your sacrifice
