Since you shouldn't talk about OE, you should also not discuss FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early). So many secrets and yet so many struggles.

Let's say you discover an unbelievable opportunity to invest and you make plans to fund it with income from J2, J3, etc. You realize that friends & family would really benefit from the opportunity, but how do you explain the way you are funding it? Do you explain that you're investing an amout lower than you are to keep your secret?

I’ve been on the bench with J1 for about 3 months. I was worried that because I couldn’t find another project, I would get laid off so I found J2, which pays more, is very meeting heavy, but I really like. I’ve kept J1 because I’m still on the bench doing absolutely nothing and getting paid.
