  • I think semi-retirement is the way for me. I like what I do, I just don’t want to do full work weeks until the day I die. However, I would not mind slowing down with age, and ending up working fewer days a week until I’m old and dying.

    At some point, I’d like to leverage the experience I’m currently building to get very comfortable on-site or in-office hours, mixed with work from home hours, and then slow down from there until weekends are longer than the work week towards the end.












  • Make a budget. Live by that budget for a month. On the first of the next month, make another budget.

    You don’t actually have to do this forever, but long enough to get the basic ebb and flow of money into your head. Planning to put more into x category means having less for y category.

    Build up savings, a little at a time. Get used to dipping into that for emergencies.

    Disregard if you’re a billionaire or entirely living off the land.
