i think it is worth trying to figure out or at least be aware. Lifestyle creep or scarcity mindset can cause us to run on the hamster wheel longer than we need to. But if you're doing what you love and can maintain your desired standard of living then you've already made it I think. I'm still trying to figure it out and I'm trying to describe it in more words than just a dollar figure but it is hard

I think beign able to live from this work alone while not feeling on the hamster wheel is the goal. Im on the hamster wheel right now and it's tiring. I don't feel free to work on what I want to work when I want to.
Im getting close but im not there.
