I'm gonna guess that working only half a full time job while (I'm gonna assume) having some money from a programming job saved up played more of a part than you may think, but I'm sure not watching movies also helps.

Meanwhile people working 8+ hours in a physically demanding job just to be able to afford rent and maybe enough food for the week who then still have to take care of general life stuff are a lot less likely to have the money, time, or energy to do much else.

Out of curiosity, did you

cycling 2 or 3 hours a day and spending about 45 minutes a day at the gym and I still have plenty of time for fun and socializing and whatnot while also getting 8 hours a day of sleep

While you had a job as listed in the pic (8hrs/day)? I'm betting time was a major factor in why you only started 5y ago.

My "real" job had a schedule from about 4 AM to 11 AM because I was managing a team of coders in India and this allowed me to overlap with them somewhat. I would then ride 25-50 miles in the afternoon and hit the gym in the evening before going to bed around 10 PM. I had less time for sleep and fucking around but otherwise it was similar. Towards the end of that job my company was bought by a west coast tech giant and then I had nothing at all to do for six months, so exercising was obviously even easier.

Well damn hell yeah, that seems like it all worked out!
