The job I'm now in has been my dream job since I was a kid like literally since I was 7.
I get to play with landrovers all day, build cool things, teach and encourage adventure etc. I would genuinely do it even if I only got 12k for it.
Job satisfaction is off the charts for me bro.

>>685016960
That's what I did when I was 19.

Bro, look at me and take me seriously for a minute. Sounds silly but:

Make sure you alternate which foot you push off with. I always pushed with the left.

I got sciatica. Do not fuck with this.

Used to own an image based forum board on the internet. Sold it to a fucking Jap. Worst part is I'm broke, working at google as a janitor and barely scraping enough together to eat. I live in my car ad I wish I was dead.

To further share, if anyone is interested...

>Go to uni for engineering blah blah.
>Residence costs 780/mo, apartment nearby costs $800/mo. Mortgage on $154,000 two-bed condo $698/mo. Fuck yeah, I have 5% down-payment (minimum in Canada) in savings from part-time work while in highschool.

>Make friends with the only other not-creepy gril in electrical engineering. Can opt-out of residence within first two months, convince her to move in with me for $600/month.

>80%mortgagepaid.gsd

>Second year, worked placement over summer plus part time job in the evenings, saved another 5%, bought 2 bedroom condo beside the one I own for $150,000 (older kitchen). Had to get parents to co-sign (admittedly an advantage not everyone has).

>Rent that to two chill dudes from mech-eng. $750/each. Utilities included, but my WiFi reached their place, so only one internet package for all four of us.

>4 years of school later, start full-time at shitty pay with local company. Already have expenses aside from car and food covered, so save every penny. Buy small 3 bedroom house and rent to grils from sisters nursing program, sister stays for free, but covers utilities and keeps them from destroying place.

>Move jobs to present fucking awesome R&D company, somewhat-okay pay, but sick boss and ride dirtbikes at lunch on company dirtbike track. Play with high-voltage and radiation. Cash.

> Buy small house locally and rent out other two rooms to friends. Mortgage covered plus some.

>paid off first condo early from rent and income. All cash minus the $190/mo condo fee.

>Work about 25hrs/week, more during critical projects. Fix and race shitty old motorcycles the rest of the time.

Totally scales to however many rental units you want to take on, and can get credit to mortgage. At minimum having a roommate can lower your cost of living.
