Choices: Fatherhood - career

[Andres]

Not a parent but why on earth would you let such a position slip through your fingers, especially now when nothing is certain. You can do a lot of your work at home nowadays anyway.

Because I'm one of those people who don't care about money and social standard. I can have a, financially, comfortable life with a lower paying, but more relax job. Sure, it'll mean no luxury and no big house, but I don't give a damn about that. I couldn't care less about what my neighbours think of me. I'm not the type of guy who would put his BMW outside his garage so people can see how well I'm doing.

I'm not, of course, completely insensitive for money, but money will never be a reason or motivation for me to do something I don't want to do. The work itself that I'm doing, however, would be, under the condition that I can do it one day while being my own boss.
