You don’t have a real job, they say in disgust. What are you doing with your life? You must be independently wealthy they say in contempt. How are you doing it? That’s not important. Understand the why. I never bought in to the status of a corportate job. When I climbed up a level it did not move the needle. For some it does, I imagine. For me I have realized it does not. I decided to explore projects that move it.
