The more money I make the sooner I can stop working.
So bigger salary = bigger happy. Always. There's no number that is "enough".
I enjoy my job, so working 20 more years isn't that onerous.
But I'd rather retire tomorrow than work for anyone else.
Honestly? If I won the lottery today I would still work. I really really enjoy my work. It keeps me focused and motivated. My problem is having my livelyhood tied to the wims of a chaotic prideful coke filled VC
That's fair, and also true for me.
I enjoy laboring. I do not enjoy working for others.
I've got endless amounts of side projects that I never have enough mental energy for because the job saps it all.
When I got laid off last year I had about a month between jobs where I got to just do whatever I wanted. After about a week of decompressing I started working 5ish hours a day on side projects, because I wanted something that was more mentally stimulating.
There’s no number that is “enough”.
A quadrillion dollars per minute ought to be enough for anybody.
See that means I would instantly retire, so I wouldn't be working.
You would work until you got your first paycheck. If it were a job that paid you under the table you could theoretically work a single shift. Best job ever.
Putting that much money into circulation would cause hyperinflation and then a gallon of milk would cost 10 quintillion dollars and you're back to square one.
>Putting that much money into circulation would cause hyperinflation
so dont circulate it.
Right... if one person owns a quadrillion dollars but doesn't spend it there is no inflation. They'd just spend a billion here... a billion there... buying up all those midsized businesses or swathes of land.
