For those with comfortable well-paying white collar jobs, what are you currently working on in your spare time to eventually exit and start your own business/retire/ etc. ?
Personal: I have a very comfortable job in a good company with great pay and benefits. However, I have no passion at all for the work that I do and feel no loyalty/identity to the company. I come to work to get the job done, no more and no less. It is a daily routine that gets the bills paid and for me to start building a nice saving. It is a routine that I don't put much emotion or feelings into, much like brushing my teeth, cleaning the house, or eating a meal. It's a uneventful routine that serves its purpose--nothing more and nothing less.
In my spare time, I like to buy and re-sell items for a small profit here and there. I also invest in the stock market(relatively long term value investing for now) and am reading into option trading for more short term income.
I also plan to learn more about internet marketing and strategies. Although I have no interest in doing affiliate marketing(many reasons) as my source of income, I believe learning the techniques is useful for any future web based business.
I plan to work here several more years just because I am relatively new to the company and there is still much for me to learn. However, it is not something I want to be stuck doing 5 or 10 years down the road.
Please share your own background and what you are doing every day (after work, on the weekend) for a better, brighter, and more inspired future.
