This.

I'd keep my current job and pay bills with that. The extra $10k (probably tax free?), I'd just stick it in high yield savings and the brokerage accounts (index funds).

The $100k/month while working crazy hours would be harder to sustain. Age matters though. A 20-year old breh should take the $100k/mo job. $15k/month to spend on himself (car, nice place etc) and save $85k/month. By age 30, he's got $10M. By age 35, he's got $15M. He can retire at that point and just do whatever for the next 50 years.
I don’t think anyone is able to work 14 hours days for 10 years my guy. You will literally die :mjlol:

10K a month doing nothing easily. The free time I'll use to make money doing other things I want to, then in turn being able to make my other ventures support my lifestyle all while saving 6-7K a month which in a year can easily get me a home. In 5 years I'd be able to acquire a few more properties to pass on to my nieces, nephew and God Children. I already live a chill minimalist life, add 10K a month pension for life that'll have me set for life in a few years.

Working from 7:00 A.M. - 9:00 P.M. Monday to Friday doing hard manual labor :dahell: You get home, you have to eat, shower, and most likely have no time for yourself due to using the weekend to recover. I'll gladly take the slow burn of 10K a month and being able to save 60-70% of that monthly pension in a month.

How you gonna ROFL with a hollow back?
I did that through my entire 20’s to mid 30’s for a lot less, and I feel like, especially nowadays, millions of folks are doing in this country alone, just to live, and hardly making it. These past 20 years have been a fukking nightmare for at least half the country. On one hand, I’m personally happy for my family and myself that the work paid off, and I’m pretty much on easy street for the rest of my life if I manage my money right, but I can’t help but feel awful for my daughter, and my friends, and everything be else that will never see any relief until they die.

If you’re flabby n sick just say that :heh:
There are 24 hours in a day. Take 14 off and you’re left with 10 hours. Let’s say your commute is around 30-60 minutes each way, then you’re left with 8 hours.

You’re literally working and sleeping without having any life. That’s not sustainable to do it for 10 years for anyone.

Anyone who says that is exposing themselves as having no social life/friends/a loser :skip:

With that being said i'm taking the $10k I already know how to flip it

If you're smart with your money, that 10k will keep you very comfortable. If you can buy real estate and rent it out+ trade stocks, you're good cor the rest of your life.

I've worked plenty 12-14hr days. I'll definitely take the $10k and be in the gym every morning with the soccer mommies
