Did not graduate from college, been working for 7 years as SDE/SDM. Would like to stop working and start studying as in, reading for 4-6 hours straight/day. I don’t want to be poor and passive income is low. What high pay low effort/automatable job can I take? Was thinking testing or quality assurance at a local software company. Remote job might work but would need to be preferably EU located.
Somewhat decent setup at home but no isolated room for work/study reduces flow state bursts. Should I look into renting an office? Partner manages to study on the couch or kitchen table but I find it difficult to focus so easily.
How to live and learn?
I'd recommend reading the book "Mindset" by Carol Dweck. It's an amazing philosophy that puts you in the right mindset to grow and succeed.
What high pay low effort/automatable job can I take?
Accounting is a good area to target since most of the work is already digital and in a consistent format (CSV, XSLX, etc)
Should I look into renting an office?
That or upgrading to a bigger home apartment. That's what me and my partner are thinking about :)
