My daughter is a good kid but every once in a while she says or does something regarding finances that really vexes me and I have to remind her of how hard it is to be successful and how you can never relax and be complacent. The typical response is, 'You talk on the phone and tell people what to do, travel to cool places and tell people what to do, or go to lunch and dinner and tell people what to do. How hard can that be?'

At that point I just walk out of the room.
haha... I think we have the same job... and the same kid... wait... .is this... me?
*has existential crisis*

Edit: and forgetting about the fact you got up at 3am to get the flight to make the 10am meeting, and then worked till 76 and then dinner with the client with your team or whatever. Then do that a few times a week. OK - time for me to walk out of the room.
