Yeah, it is.
I can support myself but, no one else barring a few piddly donations I make once a month to wikipedia and NPR. I make enough to have a teeny bit of fun on top of my rent. I can buy my tools, work on my car and be the dude I've always been.
I drive to O'Reilly's and tear it apart in their parking lot. They see it as advertisement. Win for me. Win for them.
I've come to accept that retirement might be by way of Smith and Wesson, but I'm 37, helping who I can, doing what I can and just trying to be, man, and I think I'm doing an ok job.
I see my folks, visit my mom, pay my taxes and stay out of most people's way. When the time comes that insurance doesn't pay out for some such terminal illness, I won't feel that bad about going out early. I don't have a god to disappoint.
