mixed feelings.
I get that the hustle is a good lesson. Doing things because you want to for the experience of doing it is a wonderful lesson.

And getting paid what you are worth is also important.
Our pay should equal the costs of living. Our standard of living should be important and supported.

Remember, employees in the US have the least amount of vacation time!

The hustle is a good lesson
Doing things because you want to and working at them to make them successful is a wonderful lesson.
Getting paid enough to cover the costs of living is also important.

I write because I am moved to do so. Ill do it no matter what, but its much better if I can make a living at it.
