Only 3 Days Left in 2025 - Perhaps the Best Year in My Life So Far
This afternoon I "caught" the last local shuttle driver to give a Christmas gift to them. The gift-giving is done. 😅
This year has been one of, if not the, most important in my life.
In the first third of this year, I finally quit my job.
I had no other job. I had no income. And I still don't.
But I had a plan. I stuck with it for years.
A simple plan. It just required a lot of focus and patience in implementation.
- Work the job.
- Reduce spending - "do without".
- Save.
- Invest in stocks and crypto.
- Reinvest ALL profit.
- Repeat.
It truly was following this simple process that allowed me to eventually reach a point where I felt comfortable quitting my full-time job.
It was a MAJOR EVENT.
I had reached the highest job income of my life for a few months... and gave it up.
And I definitely wasn't rich. Most people shoot for many times, even 5 times, more money than I had when I quit. 🤑
I simply didn't care anymore.
I always enjoyed working hard my entire life. I was truly a workaholic.
But I finally had my fill of it. I was just ready for a change.
To begin the next, hopefully best, book in my life trilogy. 😊
The next big thing was clearing out my home in the USA, giving away my vehicles, and moving to Southeast Asia where I now live.
I am ready for 2026! 😃
