Of course it was not a waste. I have done just about everything I have ever wanted to do. Then again I have no issues closing up this piece of shit and doing something else. Yes I did say piece of shit, as it is nothing more than another tool. It is not my job, not my life, and nothing more than the interface I use to complete the work I desire.
I unlike many though have kept it all very much in perspective. Not everyone will earn millions and be set, hell very few ever will even if they work 100 hour weeks until retirement age. At the same time there is nothing at all wrong with working for another company or as some say the man. That at very least provides you with security and if done properly a way to support your ass when you are too damn old to work. Not everyone is able to be their own bosses even though more people think they are than really are. Ask around and see how many have planned for their futures. Look at some threads from the past around here about savings rates. Seems the vast majority of those who work for themselves have zero plans set for retirement. In essence they have wasted their lives to date just acquiring stuff with next to nothing to show for it when it comes to the long haul. Pretty sure most are either satisfied with what they have today, blind about the future, others still have dreams of millions earned soon once their big idea takes off, and then a select few who did plan ahead like a good boss to make sure their employee would be well taken care of.
