  I’d consider it for:

  • The right job
  • The right money

  But it’s going to have to be the kind of job I would put in those kinds of hours for free, and get paid at least triple what is reasonably expected.

    I would not.

      yeah, i don’t think a job exists where i could sustain that for any period of time before my inevitable mental and physical collapse.

        Maybe it’s age talking but I’m at the point where my goal is the job that pays me the most for the least amount of time spent working.

        I’m much happier working my “845” (8am-4pm 5 days a week, ideally less) and then being done so I can spend as much time enjoying my life.
