In this monologue, the speaker discusses his preference for an entrepreneurial, round‑the‑clock work style rather than a conventional 8‑to‑5 job. He argues that a 24/7 hustle offers the flexibility to align work with his children's schedules, attend school events, and plan vacations by blocking off time as needed. While he finds this lifestyle appealing, he also acknowledges the ongoing difficulty of separating business responsibilities from home life, noting that learning to maintain that boundary remains a challenge.

And so he's like an entrepreneur, but me and him were talking last time I was there and he said that I would rather work 24 hours than work an 8 to 5 for somebody. And I don't agree with that more. I'm like, you know, I, I would, I would much rather work 24/7, 25/8, whatever it is, then go back to an 8 to 5, um, and stuff like that. And even though I am working all the time, I feel like it is nice. You still get to work around your kids' schedules. I get to be at all their events. Um, I get to go to their school. Um, we wanna take a vacation, I can, you know, block my schedule or whatever it may be. Um, but yeah, that's a big thing that I've had to, I'm still learning with that. Um, separating business and home life. It's very hard.
