Anyone Hiring?....

[Irving]

I should add that "a lot" of money, is completely relative. If you're like me and have never had a job that is considered well paying, then "a lot" for you may be less than others would consider. Don't worry about that, because your goal is to satisfy yourself, and not to impress others. The job for you is out there, you just need to keep every option open to find it.

Here is a Tim Ferriss interview of Mike Rowe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2omFKcCmX-o
It's long (2 hours and 20 minutes), so I suggest you put it on in the background while you do something else. Tim Ferriss interviews successful people and deconstructs what makes them successful. This isn't like a self help thing, it's just two guys talking about their experiences and there is some enlightening stuff in here. Check it out. Fast forward to 3 minutes to skip all ads, interview starts at 5:30ish. Tim Ferriss is the creator of The Four Hour Work Week and I believe he's all about making as much money, with as little time working as possible, and Mike Rowe has experienced over 300 jobs.
