Yeah, you misread it. Somehow quite terribly...

Unsurprisingly, I didn't start life earning a good living. In order to earn a good living, a point after the start obviously is reached. As I said, that is now the point I am at—at least by my own personal standards. Nor am I lacking the experience of working my ass off so much I burn out and hate living. Thus the value of enjoying my time spent is more valuable than the financial compensation for my time spent. People that think otherwise seem to be naive of their innevitable end and what that actually means.

And in my experience, homelessness is actually quite liberating the moment you accept it and stop worrying about the things you don't have and start paying attention to yourself and what you do have. It's a very profound chapter in life and why I still go out alone into the wilderness so often whenever I miss it.
