I agree.
Sometimes I get extremely bored doing same stuff I like, and it gets boring fast.
That is why most of people I know who are multi-millionaire who retired went to get a part time job. They are very satisfied with about 15-25hr/week job which pays whatever.
Some rich guys went on and bought franchises, and hired manager. There are dime a dozen of good managers available for franchise business.
Some avg mid class went to open their small business for the heck of it.
Don't get me wrong. I am NOT filthy rich. I just can't find a job which pays be the amount I want, and amount of hours I want to work. Finding above median income job maybe easy in some sector. I can sit home and make more than above average post grad median income w/15+exp (bull or bear market), and I just don't see an incentive to be stuck at work for 60+ hr/wk.

Not a bad gig if you can get it!

I would love to have a job like that as a part timer.
