So I recently sold my house and moved back with my parents in Delhi, which is set up like a duplex. I pay for the groceries and utilities, they don't pay for anything but I get to stay rent free making everything super affordable. No loans and a solid chunk of savings. I invest in crypto+stocks (70/30) since 2019.
Currently, I work freelance on Fiverr, working two 12-hour shifts a week along with stock trading every day. This covers all my expenses, allows me to save, and even invest. I live a minimal and chill lifestyle, which works for me. But here's the problem, my older relatives keep disturbing my parents and me to work more while I'm young.
Honestly, I don't get it. I'm happy, my bills are paid, and I'm saving for the future. Why should I stress myself out with more work if I don't need to? Life is about balance ffs. As long as I'm financially secure and content, what's the harm in enjoying a bit of free time? Plus, I've got more time to chill and explore new hobbies. Is that a wrong thing?
Explain/discuss your work to your parents
How do you trade stocks?
You are set. Great to see such maturity in someone so young. Chill and enjoy your life. Stay on your journey. Hire a hitperson if relatives bother you too much 😉
Actually a good decision if this is what you want from life.
I believed in the mission so much that I overlooked the actual job description. Now I'm stuck doing tedious work for a cause I care about. Has anyone found a way to inject excitement into a dull role?

What if you lose your job tomorrow and are not able to get another offer? What is your back up plan? Do you have an alternate income source or any idea?
