You could get be the "lucky" person either tomorrow or 10 years from now, question is how long can you afford to continue.
In my experience, the stress and mental aspects are the hardest because each has to decide what to give up for potentially nothing in return.
I don't like pointing out 'privilege', but this is it.
Many of us have to spend weekends and evenings looking after kids, or ill parents. Family responsibilities in other words.
Some of us have jobs that demand more than standard 9/5.
And some have to work a second job to make ends meet.
Not having responsibilities is not a sign of privilege - but just a sign of a different phase of life. So that means one has to be tactical to pick the opportunity that matches what effort & energy one can put towards that opportunity.
I’m going to be honest. You don’t sound super privileged but you are more privileged than a lot of people and you don’t seem to realize it.
There is nothing wrong with privilege and there are definitely lazy people but it gets ridiculous when you keep posting “if I could do it, why can’t everyone else?”
