2. I can basically only pay for rent/bills, food and maybe a train ticket back home once a month to see family/friends, I'd say that's a pretty shitty life style - I am paying too much rent atm but even if I was able to shave a couple hundred euros off that it certainly wouldn't make me rich.

You work at one of the highest paying firms in your locale and you are slightly above making ends meet?

Do you at least love what you do (for a living?)

Not really - consulting isn't my line of work it seems. I am lucky in a way because I got into an handpicked team that actually writes code and explores new tech, so I'm not wasting my time entirely here, but still, I am considering going back to uni to specialise and hopefully move out of the country for an higher salary as a more specialised worker rather than jack of all trades SE

I sincerely wish you luck in that.
