The reason being is many of you think you have all the answers. Yet so many are still living at home with their parents blaming climate change for your sense of entitlement.

That's is just it.. do you want your fun now while your in your "prime" or do you want to enjoy the latter part of your life. Personally I think that those that work hard early on have the best payoffs.

I had a girlfriend the entire time I was working those hours. At my busiest (90 hour weeks) I didn't work after 5pm on friday, saturday or sunday, so that still gave me time to be social.

- I had groceries delivered to my office (no grocery shopping)
- I bought a townhouse without a yard (no maintenance)
- I didn't do my own laundry or clean my own house (hired someone to do it)
- I did almost 100% of my shopping (including clothes) online
- I cooked all of my meals for the next two weeks at once and froze them so that I didn't have to spend any time cooking day to day
- I set up all of these online/delivery/service things while eating lunch at my desk, so I didn't waste any time

Other than the cleaning service, none of what I listed above was any more expensive than traditional ways of managing your life. When you 'automate' the busywork in your life, it is amazing how much time you have.
