Topic: When will we stop living for the weekend? Escaping the 9-5 life. - page 7. (Read 915 times)

What is keeping many people from living a full free life without being tied to a particular job that only gives you 2 days off per week is the means, if you can not afford such life style then you must one way or the other work to sustain your livelihood.
Right now there is nothing more i need than leave my job completely but my income is not going to sustain me much if i don't have a steady income stream, so what to do 
Many people want it but only few can afford to leave that way.

That's life, sometimes things don't go the way we expect but there is no choice to be able to accept it because on average everyone does the same thing working 5 days a week and 2 days off and some even only have 1 day off. And I think that's normal because most are like that and will get used to situations like that and it all depends on how they manage their homework and vacation during the 2-day vacation and also plan holidays when there is a red date.
and i enjoy the state i think the same as you and most importantly after 8 hours of work i still have 16 hours of rest and also with my family and for the next 10 or 20 years i just want to have a business and be boss with some workers and one- my only hope is to make a profit from bitcoin which i do in the long term. And with that I can enjoy life with other things with my family.

Do you believe that there's a true way to escape this vicious cycle, or are we doomed to live like this forever? Telling me that my minor savings in Bitcoin are going to settle me for the rest of my life isn't going to cut it, because the majority of us won't ever have enough Bitcoin to retire.

Are you satisfied with this way of life, or would you prefer to live a different way? What would you like to change and how? Personally, I'm clueless and not satisfied with the idea of spending the rest of my life like this.

Of course, I am not happy to spend my life in this kind of working system, but I know that I have to do it and there is no better system than this. However, I have one hope. Its name is Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. I have a good opportunity to achieve my economic freedom. That's why I will continue to invest in Bitcoin and one day I will break my chains. I'm making an effort to get tickets for the next train and I hope I can make it.

Time passes, and we have nothing to look forward to. We watch our lives pass, and the only thing we're looking forward to is the weekend or 20 days per year of paid time off. We're working a whole year, from 9 to 5 and sometimes even more, at someone else's business just to have an approximate of 20 days of vacation and two days off per week, with many of us having one or even none per week. Is it just me, or does this life sound completely depressing to me? Our ambitions are completely crushed by such a daily routine; our days off are mostly to get things done around the house and to rest. By the time that happens, the day has passed, and we have to go to work again.

At least where I'm at, having two days off per week is considered extremely lucky and privileged, especially if it's two days in a row. Personally, I only had one day off per week, and it honestly wasn't enough. On the one hand, I wanted to get things done around the house and rest, but on the other hand, I didn't want to stay inside doing practically nothing to enjoy myself. Thus, the single day off wasn't even close to being enough. Certainly, I'd be better off with two consecutive days off, but still, is that how you want your life to be for the next 10–20 years, or even more?

On the one hand, I don't want to complain; through the last few years of working, I've been on vacation four times, from 2020 to 2022, which isn't bad at all. On the other hand, I'd like to constantly travel and explore new destinations, the majority of which we'll never experience through this way of life.

Ethereum is a very good project to accumulate along side with Bitcoin, Ethereum is the first altcoins to come in mind when people want to invest in other coins that isn't Bitcoin. Ethereum has been around for a very long time that the developers will render keep working on the project than scam their investors so you'll safe investing in Ethereum. It also has potential for profits in the next bull market.

Invest in Ethereum bit not the scam tokens that others are launching by using the Ethereum blockchain, Ethereum is highly recognized and listed on all exchange for easy selling. Ethereum is likely to reach a new peak of $10k but that all depends on how well Bitcoin does.

Many people feel the same way, especially after the pandemic. It seems like we are stuck in a rat race, working hard for someone else’s benefit, and not having enough time or money to enjoy life. I thought I was lucky to invest in Eth in the early days, but my financial situation and circumstances prevented me from achieving my financial independence.

So, OP, those moods and depressive thoughts can happen to anyone, but try to see the sun in the little things. You have a vacation, and you have a job to take a break from.

Right now, the more side hustles and investments that are introduced to us, the more eager we want to leave our jobs completely. I know most of the 8-hour job workers here would agree to that. However, if we are the breadwinner in the family, leaving our job is the hardest part. That was my personal experience before. But I realized it’s really up to us how we will change our mindset and take some risks. So I decided to get out from my comfort zone and now I’m living my life the way I always imagined before. Though I’m not really making that huge profits, but what I earned today is much better than what I used to earn way back when I was a full time company employee.

Definitely, as someone who only had one day off, I'd be quite satisfied having every weekend off. However, I don't think I'd be happy doing it for the rest of my life.

My point is that there should be a better work to life balance, not to be lazy and have everything ready for yourself. Life should be more than just surviving on the bare minimums.
