[QUOTE="herofan, post: 1495939, member: 17843"] My upbringing was far from easy street. I don’t understand why nothing can be interpreted in middle ground d anymore; everything is looked at as an extreme. So, if what I described is not your style, are you saying you do want to work all the time, and you do want a job that consumes you, and you do want more than one job, and you don’t want time off? That’s fine, but not my style. As another poster stated, they worked hard so they could have more freedom and be able to do as they pleased at some point, and hoped their kids wouldn’t have to work as hard as they did. That sounds like a normal goal to me. It sounds ds weird to me to say “my goal is to work 16 hours a day 7 days a week so I never get to do anything but work, and I hope my kids have to do the same. That’s when I know I’m successful”. :? It doesn’t matter anyway, my way of living doesn’t affect anyone else, but it keeps me and those I’m close to happy. [/QUOTE]
