I also have no idea what a dream job would be for me. If I have to do it and I wouldn’t ordinarily do it with my free time, then it’s still just a job to pay the bills and get me to retirement.
There aren’t many situations I would take a pay cut for, aside from protecting my mental or physical health.
It’s evenly distributed.
Point is, Gen X is PLENTY represented in Congress.
I mean… lol. Gen X makes up ~33% of the US House and ~20% of the overall population.
Meanwhile, Millennials make up 8% of the House and 25% of the population.
Yep! Everything is proportional based on the FTE.
I technically have an underlying hourly rate, but am salaried in the sense that I am guaranteed a certain number of shifts equivalent to my FTE if that makes sense. Currently my FTE is 1.0 and I work 10 shifts biweekly. 0.7 would be seven shifts biweekly and so it would be 56 hours times my hourly rate. 401k match is 6% of whatever I get paid regardless of FTE. This kinda setup is common in healthcare.
Insurance cost would rise a few bucks a month. Nothing crazy.
Non-FIRE-related question of the week:
What’s the best Halloween question costume you have ever worn (or seen)?
That would be perfect. Fortunately we’re in healthcare and our jobs are pretty accommodating to adjustments in our FTE. My wife already dropped down to 8 shifts biweekly. As the money tracker of the couple, I’m not quite ready to let of the accelerator to FIRE… (one more year 🤣)
Set my first career reduction goal on my way to RE: Dropping down to 3.5 days/week (okay, 7 days biweekly) as soon as we have our renovations paid off.
Should be doable before the end of 2024!
