Most nights I sleep on the cheap, hard futon couch I've had since college. If I sleep in my actual bed too many nights in a row, my back starts to get stiff.
I had a fancy ass futon for about 2 years, first on the floor and then with all kinds of extensions (like a mattress topper and slatted base) it was killing my back. After that I've tried 3 different mattresses (two spring ones and a memory foam) and now finally a proper box spring bed from an actual furniture store that the salesperson helped us choose -- and my dog does it make a difference! Also buying a good pillow helped a ton. I've decided I'm getting too old to sleep in an unsuitable bed. Most of the hotel beds I've slept in after getting the new bed feel like crap.
I never slept on a cheap thin mattress, but my mattresses have been on the floor for more than 30 yrs. You can keep your box spring and frame. And I'm 50
Plus, if you make $100k per month and live like this, you've probably got $98500 left at the end of the month. You don't need to have too many months like that before you don't need to work anymore.
This. The goal is to never have to do this shit ever again.
I have a colleague that just left the industry to become a violin luthier. Motherfucker doesn't even know how to play yet. That's how far they want to get from anything related to their work life.
Not sure you need to know how to play them, to sell them. Heck, I had a bow re-stringing apprenticeship under a guy named Howard Needham. He can repair any damage done to any violin. He doesn't play a lick. He ensures that at least one of his apprentices can properly play a scale to test the instruments. Or he used to anyway. Haven't talked to him in a couple decades, so he may not be with us anymore as he was in his late 60s back in '99-'00
Once you learn, your fingers never forget. I haven't had a lesson in almost 3 decades at this point. I pick mine up and practice once a month or so, but I can still just whip out songs at the drop of a hat. Unfortunately I never learned to sight read, and only play by ear. I can "read" music, slowly. I just can't read it at tempo.
Well to be totally honest, there was a decade and a half that I didn't touch the thing. Took me a few days of practicing for about an hour to get the skills back, but that also could be because while I wasn't playing strings for that decade and a half, I was still tooting around on my woodwinds and brass. Love a French Horn. I should see if I can find a used one.
I have most of an orchestra in my spare room. I still need a good xylophone to round out my percussion, a French Horn and a Sousaphone to fill out my brass, a Bass Flute for my winds and a harp for a complete string set.
Kinda. I always treated my place like a workshop with a bed and computer in it.
After moving to a new place I tried to be an adult, get more furniture, hang artworks and such.
In the end I don't really like my place. I rarely use the living room part and my tech stuff isn't as reachable and practically organized as before. In hindsight I should have sticked to what I want for a home.
My living room has 2 large shelves covered in tools and parts as well as a workbench. I have some limited artwork but I gave up on appealing to others outside of basic courtesy
Not just that, but also the Plug sockets, the weird bottle in the top right, The sauce packet in the bowl, the laptop and its weird stickers. Then if you zoom in, the plug extension melts into the carpet, the writing on the note pads and a few other oddities as well.

Also that magazine(?) that is both far away and really close and lying on the floor and also floating and somehow moving through itself.
I dont know 100% what it is but my soul rejects it.

Young men, maybe. I'm in my 40s and there's no way in hell I'm sleeping on a thin mattress on the floor. That would destroy my back.

I spent the last 13 years of my life sleeping on Japanese futons and am now sleeping on a full box spring mattress for the first time since.
I can’t remember the last time I had this much trouble sleeping. What I wouldn’t give to have a “thin mattress on the floor” again.

Yes, that's what my colleague told me. They did specify that the luthier school requires that they can play a little, but not much.

Practicing every month is the whole reason you can still play.
I haven't touched my French horn or piano in years and I couldn't just sit down and play anything, and I was really good at both.
