It sounds ridiculous to me now, but back in the day my dream job was to work for Apple. To me, this is where the world's top design talent worked and where I wanted to end up.
Fast forward to today, I want nothing to do with Apple on a professional level. If the day came where I was offered to work there, I would decline. Working to promote bitcoin and free speech IS my dream job now. I am fortunate to have found something I am 100% dedicated to and can happily say I will spend the rest of my life on.
Also, I passed up jobs at Uber, Amazon and some other unicorn startups. Had I taken any of them, I probably would not have ended up here. Could not have been happier with those decisions! Things worked themselves out.
