First World Problems: Things to Be Thankful For Today

 I cannot figure out a better return than 4% per annum that isn't subject to income taxes.

The weather is too cold, when the skies are clear, to go outside and do astrophotography.

I do not have enough time to do as much expert declaration work as I would like for three digit per hour wages.

It is going to be annoying to be out for three months after getting a fundamental part of my heart replaced.

  1. Do not overwork yourself, nor neglect your family and hobbies for work. BUT... if you "do not have enough time to do as much expert declaration work as I would like for three digit per hour wages" it may be time to update your resume, showing the past years' win/loss record, and consider asking wages somewhat closer to a rate of 4-digits per hour.

    1. That seems greedy and I would do this work, anyway.
