 Agreed - and I was running a lot of consultants. When my company started getting me to promote false promises, and then having to "go to the street to find the talent", I couldn't take it any longer.

And so many lies on resumes...even had consultants doing Skype interviews basically mouthing "watermelon, watermelon" while someone off-camera answered the interview questions.

I did briefly go back and help run a Business Intelligence practice, but I worked with an established team and was able to be a technical solution provider again, too. But that shutdown during COVID...and I pivoted to teaching/coaching tennis.

I absolutely love it! 
 I agree. The pressure and stress that comes from corp America is astronomical. I’m glad you were able to retire early 😀 
 You and me (and my wife) both. And I'm finally starting to calm down - and really think that #bitcoin helped. Most of my stress has always been rooted in being able to provide for my family at least for my lifetime...if not beyond.

Bitcoin is Hope! 
 It truly is 💜
