    I mean, that was my whole reasoning for applying to work in far off locations & different countries/continents (aimed for tropical & beach) because I knew I was going to work like a dog my entire career so I may a fucking well live in a beautiful place. 35+ years later I think I did well enough to accomplish that.

      I’m looking into doing that currently. I built a reasonable savings for myself enough I could go back to college in another country. Thinking of brushing up on learning and then to work in a new place

    Every minute of “work” she’s ever done has been completely optional. They’re hobbies.

    Literally my ex rn. He bled me dry financially and now has to be a big boy and pay his own bills for once. 😂

    Everyone, throughout the history of humanity, has had to put forth effort to stay alive. Except for a rare few.

    Why do we expect anything different today?
