The only thing I care about is not being a slave to a job. Chasing a leadership title, more money, etc. I have done that and it’s miserable. I’m fine with earning around $100K for the FAR foreseeable future.

Life is short. Use your job and the money from it as a tool to simply live your REAL life outside of your 9 to 5. Stay OUT of debt and lifestyle creep. These companies don’t care about you. Travel and enjoy life! America has really brainwashed us into making work the biggest priority.

I relate to this more now than I used to. I have realised peace and balance matter more than constantly chasing the next title.

Right! I really don’t know why we care so much about a title at **someone else’s company that we don’t own**. I never understood it, but I respect those who need that.

2. How do you collect it? Venmo? Credit card?
3. Do you have to register your business?

General Question I started tuition reimbursement last year in August. I since have an interview with another job that is paying a lot more. You know how you apply to something not really thinking that job would call back? Should I get an offer, what do I do about tuition Reimbursement? Do they send a check and tell me to pay it? Do they take it out of my 401k? I know a lot of people will say I never shouldve applied but I didn't think too much about actually get a call back when I applied.
