no. sometimes you get a 3 day weekend

Or you can work from home, and enjoy having your work life and personal life bleed into eachother forever. Still beats commuting imo

That's all your life only when you seriously lack imagination. Most of getting there is clearing your mind of fake ideas like "respectable career" or "getting in trouble".

hbag posted:is this the rest of my life two things that helps: a) work a 9/80 schedule. seriously having 26 extra 3-day weekends is life-changing. that every other week i get to look forward to that owns so loving hard. 8 vs 9 hours a day is mostly moot, the day is mostly shot anyways and i'll gladly take working +1 hr every day in exchange for more 3-day weekends. b) reclaim the weekday evenings: it's so easy to lose those in just burn-out and "only live for the weekend". I was doing that for almost a decade: i would come home, make dinner, login to shitpost, play games, and conc out before doing the same poo poo every day. that routine is absolutely abysmal and weekdays were basically just black holes of nothing now i'm doing pottery classes twice a week for 3+ hrs, workout routine the other two days, and spend a weekday on deep clean and movie night. do not let your weekday evenings to to waste. it's the quickest way to just wanting to die.

if you squeeze hard for figgies and successfully save most of it you have to do it for 15-20 years. if you dont its more like 40-50. then again there will prolly not be a coherent civilization willing and able to give retirements in 40-50 years. i am pretty optimistic about only a few billions dead but we'll have to see bob dobbs is dead fucked around with this message at 06:34 on May 23, 2022 |

Yeah i'm 42 now and the plan is to exit the tech industry by age 46 at the latest. then im gonna go write a check for a small cottage and work 20 hours a week making dovetails for some rich rear end in a top hat's cabinets, and 20 hours fixing what will then be 50 year old silverface stereos.

I'm 40 in five months and might take a year off to "pretire" because who knows if the world will be around when I'm actually at retirement age

I get a pretty great pension and ss if I retire at 67 but loving lmao, even if for some magical reason western civ is still standing I’m expecting to die somewhere between 65 +\- 5 anyways so I’m getting out a decade before that even if it’s terrible financially because at least I could spend the rest doing something with my remaining time on this planet where are you getting the cottage? upstate Vermont or Maine or ny seems nice; maybe even evaporate maple syrup on the side Xaris fucked around with this message at 07:49 on May 23, 2022 |

i'm ready to retire already and i'm not even 40. generally enjoy tech and banging out scripts and playing with networking, but i can do that for not a job and probably enjoy it a lot more. still, the pragmatist says i should just keep on keeping on and then move back to asia before 2030

personally I'm banking on "fall in love with a figgielady and springboard that into both of us retiring early" because that seems more realistic than burning my soul at both ends for the next 15 years in hopes that'll end me up in a similar early retirement scenario
