    Please let the callers ask the questions before you assume you know what the questions are going to be. You are starting to cut people off and make assumptions and I don’t think your assumptions are necessarily accurate.

      @@solvingthrillers5294 I went back to school to get my masters degree, an MBA. Keep in mind that I am 23 years old. Anyways, I was a Healthcare Executive, with a very important license that allowed me to operate nursing homes. I was able to get this license at a young age because of my formal undergraduate education. And yes, I know that a lot of people would ABSOLUTELY KILL to be in my shoes, a fancy job with a fancy title and salary. I grew up very poor, but my parents were so much happier while making 20k a year than I was making an executive salary. It all comes down to what’s important to you, I have learned that you can’t be happy and rich-you have to choose what’s important to you, I chose happiness and family time over working crazy hours. I also understand from experience that making 500 to 600 a week is not a life worth living. I think the key is find a good balance because no one needs that much money, most people need just enough to be happy.

    Its mind blowing to see the number of people going through this . I am working at a verbally abusive job, mentally draining. Everyday i wake up, I'm struck by fear of going to work, I'm always anxious and now resembling depression traits. I am damn good at my Job! That's the one thing they can't take away from me. With that said, My job has taken more from me than what it's giving. My confidence has depreciated, my mental well being is suffering, I'm losing myself. Sadly I can't quite, I need the salary. Im still trying to find a job elsewhere , I keep praying, I'm studying towards my degree currently, still no luck. I wish healing and unlimited opportunities to everyone going through something similar. We will get through this, somehow!

    I been feeling this way so much lately, like i'm investing my money and making more and more back on it, and that's both reason for me to stay and for me to leave. I should stay cuz i'll get another dollar raze at the end of the year and be making more and this job allows me to make alot to invest with. But at the same time i'm like I could make less and turn it into more. What I really want is time, because I want to make video games and read a lot and just improve myself, but I also don't want to be broke. However with jobs like door dash and other things like this guy said I feel like I could definitely make up the difference as well as if I keep investing. My plan lately has been to use all my paid vacation and then quit at the end of the year, good to know i'm not the only one and I think this guys advice works for me.
