Israeli precision-guided munition likely killed group of children playing foosball in Gaza, weapons experts say
I get paid 175k. Bonus is 25k. I get 8% 401k match. I have $3M worth of rentals. Have $300k in my 401k. I have $160k cash. My primary mortgage is 4K. My Car paid off. I’m 35 years old. No kids. 100% remote. I left Amazon in 2022. I now work at a company with amazing WLB. Fridays are half days company wide. Nothing gets done on Mondays. Most work gets done between Tuesday and Thursday. For the past 6 months, I’ve been letting my mouse scroller make it seem as if I am actuve. I work maybe 10 hrs a week. 2-3 hours a day, max! The past two weeks, I’ve had to do some actual work. Nothing crazy or intense by any means. Simple data collection, cleaning, feature engineering, and the reporting. I’ve done this many times before. Easy stuff. Maybe 30 hours a week over the past 2 weeks with getting requirements, learning our DB, writing SQL, Python, etc. The thing is. I lack motivation to get it done. I’m slacking hard. I don’t want to do any work. I just want to get paid for doing nothing. Maybe I’m recovering from being over worked at Amazon. Maybe I’m just tired. Maybe I’m lazy. Maybe I’m not challenged enough. Idk. I just want to get paid. Be told how amazing I am at my job. Be left alone at work. Any advice? Is this normal?
Try and remember exactly what it felt like to be where you were 5, 10 or more years ago. Reflect on the progress you’ve made and the difference in that feeling. How do you feel?
It feels inspiring! I was so diligent, persistent, and goal oriented 5-10 years ago.
What was the process of buying those rentals?
BRRRR. Duplex. Then Fourplex. Then Duplex. Started in 2015.
I have the same feeling. I think not getting challenged kills the motivation. Everything looks like I can do it, but I don’t because it is not very special. Just trying to get by. I know I can’t do this too long. I want to find some new role that will be more interesting and satisfying.
Exactly how I feel
time to become overemployed and get another one of these shit tier jobs lol
Enjoy it, OP. I’ve been in your position before (except making less than six figures) and it’s always a great time. People will try and shame you for this, but it’s better to be labeled a rich coaster than an Amazonian these days. Keep up the great work. TC: 105K
You have like $4M NW. No kids to support. Why are you even working? Looks like you could already FIRE if you wanted to.
3M of rentals includes 2M of notes at 3%. I have 25 years before tenants pay off my note.
Lol bro why’d you even get into this then. If you just got index funds you could prob actually retire. Whats your NET nw?
Which company?
Bad news, you need to click to be online on slack.
Nah mouse jiggler is all you need to be active on slack
