in the four(ty) hour workweek on brip blap
I have a forty hour work week ( my job) However, I spend about 4 hours a week doing other work related things I love such as my business and other projects.
For as Travel and adventure, been there done that.
I wish I can drop the job and focus on my other activities. Problem is that my job pays much more than my business.

@Moneymonk - "extra work" in the sense of "unnecessary work" isn't what keeps middle class middle class, at least in my opinion.

in rich mom, poor mom on brip blap
I have to agree with Mary Witzl , my daughter also PREFERRED to be around her own peers. I work, but I also have plenty of days off and I would always spend those days with however I noticed that I am not her equal and she preferred to be around other kids doing kid stuff.
Some children just want to be around their peers and I don't blame them. That was her little paradise

@moneymonk: Well, it's UP to - the study pointed out that location, lifestyle, income level, etc. all play heavily into that estimate. At the same time, I bet your mom spent a fair amount with 7 kids - maybe more than you'd think at first guess.

I agree with -remodelingthislife
You have to balance it, I have set up auto draft for my long tern capital (retirement and college fund) and I forced myself to have fun and pay living expenses with the rest
Either way I'm having my cake and eating it too

However, if you're to make a million dollar doing things you don't love, I would really think twice again about making that million dollars :-P
I guess what the author would have meant is that it would be much easier to get ahead in the financial game if you were to do things that you love.
