That's not a bad schedule if you have the weekends free, you're exercising daily, all you need is ~1 hour of random time for TV/gaming and you're set.

My weekends are full-rot, 2 x 12 hour study days. The only saving grace is that university only runs ~8 months off the year. My weekdays are similar, except I allow an hour to watch TV/game a day, keeps my sanity.

such a hard life for OP, no worries about food or having shoes, place to stay just a regular schedule for the 8-5 working man.

I imagine OP would die within a week living in a third world country.
I just want to share the knowledge I have obtained throughout my life and hopefully change someone's life.

Let me fuk y'all up with this one:

- I work 3 days a week
- I make 55-65/hr (depending on contract, stipends)
- I work 3 month contracts
- After each contract, I take a month off before signing a new one
- I feel like I am hardly ever at work

Man I was just saying I'm kinda tired... I didn't say I hated my life ... clearly I'm pretty fortunate which doesn't change the fact that I'm tired lol ??

What's the gameplan going forward OP? Doesn't passing the CFA L1 already prove your interest in the field since you say you come from a non-traditional background. Is it worth doing the next 2 levels?

Ok, this will sound cliche as phuck, but it's so true. Just hustle until you can afford to/have the opportunity to work for yourself. It really is the GOAT lifestyle. I work from home and I phucking love it. Elated most of the time. Still gotta work hard, but the freedom. The freedom is everything.

My hangovers often linger a bit longer too. Brb not feeling 100% until 48 hrs after partying like a rockstar. Bc of this, I try not to get shytfaced on saturdays, especially if monday is an important day at work.
