    Maybe one day I will earn enough that I can go to Middle-End servers and no longer suffer from chasing the bottom.

    Skip the middle part and just go straight to setting up / owning your own DC

    I think he'll just end up learning to cope :smiley:

    Maybe, I just refused to join the dark side when others offered me, I have the option to earn much more but I choose not to.

    But I am re-evaluating my options now.

    Define others...

    I wont share who are them but lets just say one can earn much more when they sell their soul, and theres probably nothing wrong with that.

    Thanks... I'll ask @deank to get in touch. I don't mind selling my soul. Let them have it.

    a-fucking-men

    My current job lets me WFH full-time if I want, which leads me to shitpost on LET during work hours

    Of course, I still do my job, but there's no micro-managing (which is something my boss at my last job sometimes did).

    I fear rejection so never opened a thread here, I literally went through 1000s of threads but couldn't gather the courage to make one. 🫠 When I bought my first VPS I was so confused but went through so many threads and purchased from one of the link posted there. I just literally started talking from black friday megathread, if it wasn't for it maybe I would have never even talked

    i've been offered very attractive 6 figure salaries to go work up in brisbane city with some menial mind numbing 10 hour a day job and said fuck that

    i get paid enough now to live a very very comfortable life and not have to stress about work 75% of the time I'm here, much rather the low stress enjoyable life

    6 figures annually? I am talking close to 7 figures here if I choose to join the dark side, it won't be comfortable but hey at least I cry in a Ferrari than in a Honda, and then I won't care about whether the VPS costs me $7/yr or $70/yr.

    Nice.

    I go to Thailand at least once a year - usually Rawai, Koh Lipe and Railay.

    Will be in BKK in a couple of months, for a few days.

    Nice, I don't think I've ever been that far south (unless I was very young).
    We typically start around Bangkok / Pattaya area for a few days after landing, then start moving our way up north eventually, since my family lives fairly close to the border to Laos.
    Usually my family rents a minibus and we just spend a few days driving north, doing some sightseeing at places we stop at. Always a good time.
