To each their own. I’m now in a role where my workload oscillates between 30 and 60-something hours a week. I love it, and I like the bursts, though there is recovery.
After a year or two, in trading, that sixty goes down to 50. After some more time it goes down to 40 or so. That said, those hours are work. They are intense and stressful and horrible for one’s nerves and health.
I left trading after my boss, a trim middle-aged man (I assumed) with extensive balding and some cardiac history, celebrated his thirty-second birthday.
