This goes with the reason you do your side hustle. I read all the time about how you should use your side hustle to get rich or pay off your house now or whatever. Really "get ahead in life."

Yes, we all need money to live, but if we're doing the side hustle to "win" the financial race, it's really not worth it to sacrifice the here and now for some theoretical pot of gold in the future.

(That, by the way, goes for the miserable, over demanding primary job as well!)
