Question

How Can I Break Free from the 9-to-5 office Lifestyle?

I work in an office and I hate the thought of having to work in an office job from 9-5 for the rest of my life until retirement which is 40 years away for me.

Just thinking about being here at the office for another 40 years until I can retire makes me depressed. How can I get away from the 9-5 office job before retirement?

Answer 1

If you hate working in an office. Then maybe try looking for jobs where you can do the work from home instead of having to be in an office. Some jobs will allow you to do your work from your home computer instead of having to come into an office.

And there are some companies that only do telecommuting saving on office space.

If that doesn't work out maybe do some freelance work. There's many freelance jobs online where you can earn some money working from home and you can work on your own time and be your own boss.

Another option that could eventually earn you a living working at home is starting a blog on a topic you know a lot about and that gets a good amount of search traffic.

If you blog in a high paying niche you can make more money eventually than your current office job pays you.

But the blog money won't happen overnight so if you start a blog don't quit your job until you start earning a good income that can match or exceed your current job income.

This can take 5 years or more before your blog is earning enough money to quit your day job.
