quote: a normal job is going back home I hate it. I'm getting bored
Depends on your version of "normal". If 'normal' is an entry-level retail job, then, yeah, it's gonna be boring. If "normal" is a defense engineer designing lunar spacecraft, missiles, smart bombs, etc, then it seldom gets boring. And the recipe to wealth is fairly simple - every year take $10k of your income and stick it in the SP500 Index Fund, if you work for 30 years it will be around $2.2 million.
quote: and watching that garbage television.
I grew up on a farm where there was no TV signal. And for most of the 5 million years of mankind on earth, there was no TV, no bathrooms, no electricity, yada. Most of us managed to keep busy w/o that stuff - we had an outhouse. A pail that we took to the well to draw water.
But when I compare NOT having garbage TV to having garbage TV, I would rather have it. Big Bang, Ice Road Truckers, yada. And lots of Fake News - it takes insight, critical thinking skills, to sort the TV fly-shit from the pepper so that you can grasp the 'real' News.
