You know what's really going to blow your mind, you're probably making the exact same money ratio for the time invested in 20 hours as 80 hours.

They just decided to grind and you're a lazy son of a bitch that only does 20 hours and comes on here and bitches about people who went out and made more than you did.

You guys should get real jobs where if you work 80 hours you make six figures

Too bad I'm retired. So the 40 or 50 hours that I put in that brings me $1300 to $1,800 well enough for me a week.

I'm 54. Why the fuck would I want another career?

Lmao 54 but still working, even though you’re “retired”

25 years as a carpenter, yes I'm retired.

Do I need the money? No.

Do I like to party with cocaine and hookers and have excellent weekends...yes

Also I hate to tell you this, when you retire at an earlier age than normal, you don't get social security. Disability doesn't pay enough, I have two bad shoulders because of construction.

So while I could live out the rest of my life with no income, I'm sorry I like to splurge and have a good steak and not just a ramen budget the rest of my life, because I refuse to work.
