I mean, unless you're a tradie who manages his own homestead - but I certainly wouldn't call that having a lot of "time" - it's a hellish amount of work.

It's why I've stuck around for a chill fully remote job that doesn't really pay that well. I could be making like 20k more but I have all the time in the world to do what I want instead of being stuck in an office/commuting for 50+ hours a week

Only difference is I’m making more while paying more.keep working boyos...it'll be worth it one day lol

Find out what you really need in life...get the debt down to $0 and living expenses as close to $0 as possible. Get some sort of passive income stream to pay those living expenses...with a little left over to invest/save/increase income every month. Own all your time and truly be among those that are really wealthy.
