So, men. If you want to chose a life of either hustle and dream chasing, chaotic and competitive life, or a life where you buy a small house near a coast, do a small job or business and live peacefully?
What would you choose and why? Also,
What are you doing currently?

Absolutely the second, although I don’t think dream chasing has to be chaotic and stressful. There are many different types of dreams.
However in this economy it feels like you have to do decades of hustle to one day buy that “small house near the coast”…
I want peace and quiet. So the second option.
Currently, waiting for a job offer.
I have no dreams anymore, and lost the capacity to have any, so probably none at all.
The latter. I value family, peace and low stress far more than material goods and “hustle” culture. I’m not even remotely impressed by people who grind away and have their life revolve around work.
I want to die
The second option would be the dream.
Currently I’m doing the first, but not because I want to.
Absolutely the latter.
We’re only here once… why spend it being chaotic and competitive, when I can appreciate what I have and be relaxed and content.
Bullshit post
Need job big mortgage $750,000
Houses $880,000
Units $650,000 upwards etc etc
Family above everything. I’ll do whatever I need to do to make sure they’re safe, healthy and happy. I’d definitely chose the latter, but I’m deeply entrenched in #1. Which has given me and my family an abundance of happiness and health.
I say to myself everyday I’m the richest man in the world and there isn’t anything I’d change.
I want to buy an old farm, plenty of land. I want peace.
Definitely not carrieristic and if i find a woman i would give everything to family
Growing up I always wanted the chaotic competitive life, chasing my dreams and drowning myself in work, but at a certain point in my life all of that stopped making sense. I’d kill right now just to get a loving wife, settle down, have a few kids. It’s all I can think about right now.
Cooperative dream chasing, I’m a fashion photographer who also works behind the scenes on film sets
If I can get a girlfriend, I want to achieve anything I possibly can. If I can’t get a girlfriend (most likely option) then I want to live the rest of my life in the Himalayas so I don’t have to be jealous of all the couples everywhere.
I like the idea of the of small business or job then be able to raise a family and relax with my wife. Life is hard though
I like the dream chasing. It wasn’t my dream to get my law degree, be a prosecutor and now a judge but dreams change and mine did without it really being my choice. Stuff happened to me that altered what I wanted to do and what I ended up doing. I don’t regret it and love the life I have but it wasn’t what I envisioned growing up.
Number two any day,
Half of those options don’t exist. Everyday I daydream about slowly hiking my shit so far into the forest no one would ever find me. Alone.
Moderate sized house in bushland with the ability to be a fully functional homestead. That would realistically cost about 500’000 but doable. Bonus points if I’m married to a man or woman and or have kids which would be about 10’000-100’000 dollars.
So total cost is about 600’000, I want to keep working though even if I don’t have to my career is my vocation. And not peaceful I want to fully embrace the chaos I’d life is easy you ain’t trying.
A simpler life, outside of a city, preferably near the ocean and with my kids full time!
I was always in a small village. Then I moved to a big city, and I love it. There are so much things going like events, or courses you can do or heck even small things like creative things that you won’t see in a small village. So definitely a big city, and for work, probably something with responsibility and stress (the good kind). It just feels good to unwind when you did some stuff you know? When you have no stress, and you can fin stuff every day, then it becomes boring.
