Working for a salary on other people's ideas, LOL. Mostly incredibly boring ones. One interesting ones that fizzled due to too-low investment and too-safe management (odds are it would have fizzled anyway, of course, though I do think if that one had had the eyes of the right investors it probably could have done a "successful exit"—this was like 15 years ago though)

Same as 95+% of people.

For me it has been just saying "yes" when I was offered a job and when that one was getting a bit annoying someone happened to offer me another and I said "yes" too. I have ended up a bit underemployed and underpaid, but life's comfortable and safe and I have ample time to stress over hobbies instead of work.

So comfortable that lately I have declined offers for interesting and much much better paid work, because I can no longer be bothered to take any risks or alter my lifestyle.

But sometimes I wish I could have been the guy managing to get 10k MMR using knowledge I've got in spades.

Sure fire away maybe this time something clicks for someone :)
