Guilty I apologize for not being clear on this point. What I mean is...as one approaches critical mass... investment returns may be much higher than salary, one may spend (appropriately I think) more discretionary time managing investments than on the job. Earlier on in my career, I would spend tremendous hours at work...sometimes weekends...sometimes all nighters... Now...it just seems more appropriate to spend discretionary time studying and managing investments. And...in this context, can one really do their best work ON THE JOB? Guilty as charged. As an economist, you can look at this two ways. One, you are being a rational economic person spending your time and effort on what counts most profitably. Two, viewed from a cost-benefit analysis it pays to concentrate your efforts where they will be best rewarded where the payoff is greatest. The bottom line is at the end of the day your employer can care less about you when it is time to lay you off and the only thing that ultimately matters,(from Oliver Twist),is money in the bank...large amounts.
