I'm convinced this is the best type of passive income. A job with minimal work (perhaps some kind of security guard or IT support) sitting at a desk. I would use the opportunity to work on my own projects that would actually make me money, all the while getting paid.
- seivan 13y agoYeah I want this.
- imdsm 13y agoI had this, it got boring real fast. The money wasn't great. I could live on it but there was no future prospect. A slow career death if you will. So I took a harder job, with higher pay.
- legacy2013 13y agoThis, I had the same issue, except they paid well. I ended up leaving for a job that would actually use my skills with more pay
- warbastard 13y agoExactly the same case for me too. At first it seems like it would be great, but it was wearing away at the passion I once had for my career. I now spend my days looking at cat videos and playing games rather than focussing on personal projects. I move jobs in 2 weeks to a harder job with better pay and can't wait.
- imdsm 13y agoBest of luck with that. For me it was a great decision!
- rmc 13y agoCan't really argue with "and higher pay"
- imdsm 13y agoIt was exactly double. Can't argue with that.
- illegalsmile 13y agoLike others have said below you think you do and you do for a while but then it starts to wear on you, big time. All that extra time you have at work becomes oppressing and personal projects suffer if you work on them at all. I'm looking to either go back to school or find a tougher job, I've even considered landscaping or construction since it's generally non-stop but it would be a detrimental pay cut.
- thinkr 13y agoI work for a big company where there is a lot of down time. It may sound appealing - good pay with minimal to no work, along with minimal supervision - but it get boring real fast and can be demoralizing. I would rather be actively working on something that challenges me, than have my brain rot away. I've even tried working on side projects while at my day job and it doesn't work out because it's difficult to really devote focus to something that isn't related to your job.
