I'm frankly starting to get a new kind of trouble with where prices are going. Used to be I had to Do Stuff to Get Money from Others. Now I'm closing in on true financial independence. And I have no idea where to go from here.
Congrats. I reached that point too a while back. My whole life I spent my energy on working on making more money, college, personal sacrifice, business ventures, etc.
Now that I make more with bitcoin than anything else, and I don't really need to make any more money for the rest of my life (though more opens up possibilities) it changes my life goals.
Right now I go to work even though I don't need to. I have zero motivation, especially working for the military industrial complex. If it weren't for the fact that I have no stress at work and I work in a very relaxed atmosphere I would leave. Other people stress...but that is because they worry about their future careers. Though going to work is ok because it gives me a reason to get out of the house in the morning.
Even thinking about things I can do with my life outside of work it tends to come back to working on something...which tends to be something that makes money. I need to figure out how to balance working on something that doesn't drain my funds and productivity while not worrying about making money off of the venture. Like I want to help with this seasteading venture and can contribute in many ways such as running their network or developing some blockchain stuff for them, but I keep thinking that I would need to get paid to do something big like that. But a small salary would only be symbolic for me, and a big salary would not be feasible. And if I wanted a big salary I would just keep doing what I am doing now.
First world problems I suppose.
I have been reading The Will to Power by Nitchze to kind of get into the heads of the bigwigs that I might start mingling with (and have already started to do) as more of a protective stance to not become an easy target. I will be delving into other books like that to get an idea of the mindset and to enlighten my mind a bit.
