Different

7/21/2021

This is way beyond my remote concern of being condescending.

I find my views on work, money and spending time make me different from my peers. My goal is to become financially independent through a combination of investing, living frugally and cutting costs by eschewing consumerist habits and living a slower, simpler life in nature.

Sometimes when the conversation drifts to these topics, it's hard for me to avoid talking like I'm explaining to a five year old. This gets tiring very quickly for the person on the receiving end. From now on, I'm going to spare my friends of my tirades and vent here.
