I started out in Korea as an English Teacher. Worked this gig for 16 months and hated it. Now I got a corporate job at a Korean company making 2.8 million and they work me to death and my stress levels are high. The thing is I have a business in gangnam which I 14 ~ 15 million from. Should even bother working? If I quit my job it means sitting on my ass at home all day doing nothing. Not sure if I want to do that. What would you do? Take into consideration that I will be forty next year. So if I quit it will be even harder to find work if I get bored at home. My job is stressful to the point where I now think esl is a breeze. Opinions appreciated. |
Poor you.

sorry for the typos. Typing this from my smartphone. To clarify i own a business in gangnam from which i make 14 ~ 15 million a month. I know it may seem like alot but to me its only so so. Also consider that i am not as young as most of you. I only have so many years left to earn money. Just dont know if the stress of current job is worth it. Help. |

You have a company that makes more than 10 million a month and you think this is so so.
You have another job at 2.8 that works you to death.
Something doesn't add up.
Why on earth would you work for 1/3 elsewhere?
There is something more than typo mistakes going on. |

I don't have a business and I wouldn't even work for 2.8 a month.
Your story has more holes than a piece of swiss cheese
@Everyone
Seriously, if you had the kind of money this guy does, wouldn't you just go home? |

You have problems and I actually pity you. If can not be happy with 180,000,000 won a year, You may never be happy. I can't believe you want to work a stressful job for only 2.8 million a month if you are making 15 million on the side. Don't you have hobbies or interests of your own? If I were you I would spent time with my family and have more children if I had that kind of money. I would take them with me all over the world and write a book for fun. |

I was going to post a thread about whether you guys think I should buy a summer home in Florence or Cannes, but if this is how we're going to treat people with serious problems, you can just forget it. |

Your question is more legit and believable, but just not on a job-related discussion forum for Korea. Or did you mean Florence gu in Seoul and Cannes gu in Busan?  |
