You drive in traffic at least an hour a day, spend an hour getting ready for work, and when do you live? Exercise? Go out in the sun? Listen to music, spend time with someone interesting or have a deep philosophical conversation...I'd rather make 12k a year (working 2 hours a day) and have freedom than 80k a year (8hours a day) and be able to have 2 days of freedom per week.

Americans are just addicted to stress, work, and caring what other people think, which is why most will never be happy.
Translation: "I'm broke, and I accept that".

I'll tell you what Pou. If you think you have "freedom" earning 12K a year, you're dumber than TTWarrior.
