@Michael Lin - Thank you for sharing your story. Your experience. Most people on here have no idea what it might have taken for you to get to salary you made - perhaps it was 3 years of brutal work hours ans hustling or perhaps it was given to you.

Either way, no one has the right to judge. I read something from Elon Musk the other day where he spoke about working 16 hours a day, 7 days a week and people still calling him lucky.

Some people actually work their behinds out to get the salaries they earn and at some point you realize that they need something more like what you mentioned. Hello Maslow's hierarchy of needs.

Keep doing you, in the meantime, I will work my behind until I reach the point where I don't have to batter my time and soul for money and live mt life on my own terms.
