step 1 : have a career

step 2 : don't spend that much money, building up savings

step 3 : time is money, therefore, money is time.

step 4 : be very, very frugal during your time with no work. I ate a lot of protein powder, eggs and pasta

What is a career in your definition?

In this context, it's an employment specialization that allows you to earn a greater than average income. I was amazed that as a software tester I used to get paid more than a nurse, an arguably more stressful and more important employment path.

I'm on the left. It's a hard thing that happens in life that I am pointing out, not agreeing with.

That’s wild. I’m assuming you’re in the states. I’m a UX designer and on paper I make just shy of $50k CAD.
