Growing up, I spent far too many mental cycles on the subject of money. By the time I graduated college and got a job, though, the obsession started to fade. I didn't (and still don't) make a particularly high salary, but through careful budgeting and cost-controlling over a few years, it's become something I barely concern myself with.

My main goal at present has simply become the following:

I want to enjoy my work. Extremely so, even.

To me, this is the real challenge, much more so than getting more money.
