As I approach middle-age, I still find it hard to describe to people what it feels like to have never found a career that pays better than 25K per year. Now they attribute my not wanting to work to “mental illness.” –Yeah, fine. Let’s go with that.

When I really think about it, it almost seems to me that mental illness is wanting to work for such little compensation.
