Amazing how maintenance work creeps up and takes over your life
You either learn to enjoy maintenance or play life-stack-fall-apart roulette
If you don't get your creative engines running and flywheels spun up before 30 you might never start due to growing maintenance burden

Admin/paperwork stuff is only like 20%. About 80% is just the physical health, relationships health, etc. Takes 10x effort to maintain same level of fitness and health for example.

On the bright side, you're at your most likely to succeed in starting a business at 47, and creative hobbies are a lot more enjoyable than trying to make it a profession. Also, if you don't have kids, maintenance work never has to be particularly time-intensive.
