    I suppose the question is – “do you want to be happy? Or rich?” You can get rich working 60 hour weeks, or you can have your family beside you and be happy.

    This is how I felt when young and still feel I was better off, attitudinally, than when money became important.

    well-i-never

    My father got a used 14’ sheet-metal boat that leaked like a sieve. Having been apprenticed as a watchmaker-jeweler, he blowpipe soldered the entire 31’ seam. Using circular breathing, this was essentially done on one breath.

    Break even is OK until the rainy days show up. Contrary to some beliefs you can’t depend on the kindness of strangers.A few dollars buried in the back yard can’t hurt.

    I still remember my dad and I having a conversation like this, discussing my job options! (I wanted to take the job that was fun)

    I don’t think your parents are fixated on how much money you’re making. Rather, what they hear you saying sounds to them as though you keep dabbling in this or that because you are short of funds, and are worried you are going broke – which means hungry. In other words, they love you and want you to have a good life, not suffer.

    She is washing them? Or bringing them up from underneath the counter? I agree with the kids. As long as they love what they do & make enough to survive on in addition to being self-sufficient, there is no rule that work has to be full-time for a company.
