Welcome to c/WouldYouRather, where we present you with the toughest, most ridiculous choices you never knew you had to make! Would you rather have a third arm that's only useful for picking your nose, or be able to talk to animals but only if they're wearing hats? Yeah, it's that kind of vibe. Come for the absurdity, stay because you've clearly got nothing better to do with your life.

Fascinating study, thank you for making this table. I don't know what the mining assumptions are in terms of speed. You're right that $132,000 is nothing to thumb your nose at. It's certainly really grindy, but extra returns can be made by investing what you don't spend. I think I would still struggle to find myself mining every day of the week for 15 years though!

oof, it looks like you calculated 132k with a 60 hour work week. I guess that's not exactly the worst, but at 40 hour work weeks you're making 88,400 USD. I think that's still not too bad but it definitely changes the math quite a bit. if you're living almost anywhere in the world except for the top 10 countries in income, 88,400 USD per year is pretty good.
