I'm quite a bit older than most people here and I'll be honest, even if you end up in the career you wanted to when you were 18, 19, 20 eventually it just gets tired and repetitive. It's just work, 8~10 hours of your life you'll never get back, waiting for your two days off which go by way too quickly, then it's back to the grind Monday morning where you make small talk about your weekend with people you tolerate at best. I like my job, but after so many years it just gets old.
If I won the lottery I wouldn't even buy anything, I'd just clear any debt I have and stay home working on hobbies, maybe try starting my own business, spending time with family, waking up at noon, and generally relaxing and being lazy. I'd never go back to work for someone else ever again.
Hey, you asked.
