The Secret Lives of Millionaire Tech Engineers Who 'Rest and Vest'
I have a job that I like. I work about 40 hours a week and enjoy the company of my teammates. I even like the work we do.<p>And still, this makes me livid with jealousy. To get paid 500k - 1m a year to basically just fuck around with side projects and stuff you like to do is the dream of dreams.<p>I don&#x27;t even know how to think about this. I can&#x27;t decide whether I have some moral superiority to make me feel better or if I&#x27;m just a pure sap for trying to do the right thing and work hard. It would take me around 8 years to net a million dollars. My mortgage is a chunk of change that hurts to pay every month.  Saving is challenging and I just can&#x27;t help but feel like I&#x27;m a sucker when I see these folks who do fun stuff all day and get paid 5-10x what I make.<p>Someone, please: make me feel better!
