It's not really contradicting. I have a side gig going on which so far makes me around the same as my salary. Mind you, I only launched this business a month and a half ago.
Why do I want to get rid of my job? Maybe I could be putting more time into my side gig and turn it into a full time thing, which is actually my plan. However, It's still manageable for me to have a job and the side gig.
Now, I'm not touching any of the money the side gig is earning because it's all going to be reinvested so I actually ¨need¨ my job to have fuck you money for fun.
This is why I say life doesn't revolve around employment. There's much more to life than trading most of your time and life for weekends, at least for me.

Yeah, actually I'd prefer to live in LA.
