It seems you know more about my life than I do....
You work so you can pay your bills? Doesn't seem you have too many choices to me. If you don't work, you can't pay your bills.
I'm not saying you are not, b/c I do not know you. I hope that you are independently wealthy. It would be great if more people were. I'm not quite there yet, but I will be within the next 5 years. Money isn't everything, but it's sure better to have more than less. My wife knows that she doesn't have to take crap from anyone at her job, including her boss. She can quit at anytime and either try to find more work or not. We don't have kids at this time, so our goal is to generate as much income as possible. Bank as much as we can while we are young.
You are right, if you are not the owner of the company then you do answer to someone. Inevitably, I think we will all answer to God. Have a great day.
