      This is a necessary *corrective* to bad advice other people give, perhaps, but if it were actually generally true then there'd be no such thing as the stereotype of a "midlife crisis" Nobody getting paid six figures would suddenly crack up and burn out and wreck their lifehttps://twitter.com/mouneer/status/1342559926611271681 …

      In my particular case, the #1 person who was the biggest cheerleader for this POV throughout my entire childhood, to the point of red-faced shouting stridency over it, *did* walk out on his six-figure job to go chase scammy business deals in China because he flipped the fuck out

      So, I mean, sample size of one, but the kind that leaves an impression on you Going directly from "Arthur, you need to *grow up*, a steady paycheck is worth more than any of your childish fantasies" to screaming at my mom "I'm NOT going back to work there, I CAN'T"

      The real realistic telling it to ya straight advice would be "if you're lucky maybe you can find something you enjoy enough to do it a long time that also pays enough to keep you out of poverty but that's not always an option so good luck out there life is a cruel lottery"

          I read it more as the rich people backfill this idea that they're passionate about things that make them rich because what they're really passionate about is the economic benefit.

          Which I can get. I'm way more passionate about sex work than the stuff I went to grad school for. But my day job is in that stuff because it's consistent and stable and provides heath insurance and lets me take care of my family and I'm passionate about my family.
