Early Life Crisis

[Deleted member 25872]

How in the hell can we enjoy being awakened at 6.30AM or early in the morning by a alarm clock, leap out of bed, dress, force-feed, shit, piss, brush teeth and hair, and battle the traffic to get to a place where your making somebody else rich? Sorry for the deep question!

Sounds normal, I mean everyone has to go and earn money and work around £8 an hour and the CEO earns £500 to £5000 an hour.

Having a job isn't supposed to be fun. Only you can change the way you live and what you do, you will never attain financial freedom or control over your time while working for somebody else.

Not all companies are in it to get rich. People start businesses because they see a need for something and because of supply and demand realize that they can eke out a living.

You have the option of making your own business but with that comes the issue of maintaining it and if it fails then you fail.

On the other hand, if a company fails you can easily move on to another business to work at without losing any supplies/land/equipment/ etc...

Here in the US, those who are self-employed have to pay about a third of what they make in taxes. Stinks. They also have to pay more for healthcare. Stinks. Which is why it's better to go with a company that already exists if you want to make more money all around to feed your family.

I agree with this statement. Having a job is a way of life. You can't go through life living off of your family or your friends. At some point, it's time to fly the nest. I've been working since I was a teenager and I liked because it allowed me to buy what I wanted when I wanted. It also allowed me to pay my bills. I love having a job. It takes care of most of my problems. Without it, I'd be having a financial crisis.

It's hard and I still remember how it used to be when I was in school. Life was extremely difficult and hard to deal with. These days I don't have to get up so early and am just trying to cope with an illness. Circadian Rhythm is something you should look into. It's the daily life cycle of day and night and how if it gets to haywire how it can effect you. I sleep at random times though as do a lot of people. But if it gets too off-the-wall some people can be effected.
