Ask HN: Is unemployment the only way to maximize your potential?

This is assuming of course that your family will take care of you while you try to do this. This could also be attempted if you are already rich, but maybe you won't be as motivated then.

Not sure I understand what you are talking about…

  People who pay you money don't care about you maximizing your potential. So why should employment allow you to do that?

    You’re right, 99% of the times.

The only way to gain power over an employer is if they are failing. And if they are failing it won't be long until they try to ruin your "ideal situation."
