Pretty happy, about to start new role.
Motivation = mortgage, food, etc
Interim leadership role, new client
Very happy but I’m a career changer and much lower level than a partner. I don’t want your stress lol. You deserve the money. Been there in a past life. What motivates me? Interesting and challenging work. Taking care of my family. Taking care of my health.
Very happy since I now work from home. No office politics
Office politics generally suck. People drama can be exhausting
Partner in y4, professionally and monetarily motivated by the “ramp” and retiring by age 50-55 with good passive income.
Personally motivated by family and outdoor recreation/races
This is me minus the races. I still find myself in a little bit of a rut from time to time though. Some of the normalcy of life and particularly parenting. Helps a lot to have small goals for achieve and vacations to break up the “norm” a bit.
Random hookups with hot interns and analysts
You’re on your third or fourth marriage?
Moderately happy most of the time. If I thought the ACA would survive, my SO and I would retire next year and live the good life.
This is my motivation. Very happy in the current role
Being able to be comfortable.
Balanced rather than happy, but still enjoy meeting new people, dressing up and going to new places
Relatively happy in my personal life but I hate my job. Part of FIRE movement now but I’m still 6 years away.
When did you start? Do you have kids?
Not happy at all with the job but I do great work and this job finances the best parts of my life, so I’m content.
