Missed life lessons - making your money work for you

[apamburn]

I admit, I like to spend my money. Ive watched enough people die who didn't plan on it that my enjoyment, etc trumps a fat savings any day.

I want passive income precisely so that I have more free time and more income to *not* live frugally and enjoy my days.

I wouldn't say I live frugally. This year I bought binocular nods, traded between a rav4 prime, rdx aspec advance, and volvo c40, and am ordering an ev6 gt as soon as orders open. Paid off all CCs for good. Just in general have been enjoying life. I typically work 3 days per week, but yeah, 0 days is THE goal!

Don't be too sure of that. I retired in July of last year, and am now starting to look for another job. Mostly to stave off boredom (meaning that I can be fairly selective about what job I go with).

I have no desire to work, nor do I find myself bored. If I live long enough to retire, I'll embrace it.
