I have 3 offers. One from a Singapore based private equity firm’s office in my country, one from an Art Startup and one from a real strategy consulting firm

All three are offering the same fixed salary but different bonus structures. The problem is that I hate working but I am currently jobless living with my parents but I am immensely great at a few things in niche industries and hospitality that got me noticed by people on LinkedIn. I got two interviews; one from ER at JPM and one from Bain consumers just by posting a study on LinkedIn. Plus my undergrad was from a decent target school. I would also like to escape my current scenario and escape my helicopter parents. The startup sounds like a pretty dubious idea but they allow me to wfh and I can save a lot of money, spend it on things that I enjoy. The PE firm would allow me to exit to Brookfield or a large REPE firm but the hours will be tough and the reason I left my previous infra strategy consulting job was because the hours extended beyond 6 pm and didn’t allow me time for the gym. Physical health is of the utmost importance to me as I suffer from panic disorder and depression.
My former flatmate used to be an analyst at KKR and he used to work till 3 am. I used to loathe his lifestyle and his ambition but I never felt jealous of him cause while working his back gave out and he ballooned to 120 kgs lol.
The reason I got the PE job was cause I am a smooth talker at times and managed to convince them that I was up for the job. Plus they were really impressed with the assignment that they gave me and my performance over 4-5 interviews. My cousin who is a managing director at an Indian PE firm got me the interviews.
Cushman has no USP. Neither do my other offers like WeWork strategy or KPMG strategy consulting
Please consider that I suffer from a panic disorder and am on paroxetine for it. I handle stress very poorly.
The Pe offer is the best I have. As I mentioned I was really perturbed by the post 6 pm calls (which I never answered) and weekends (which I never worked). I realised that I wasn’t cut out for the corporate life. People in my team used to work till 2 am while having families and kids to take care off. They could only talk about real estate and had the personality of a well programmed robot. My clients were blackstone, KKR, Brookfield etc. we used to regularly help them in acquisitions and portfolio valuations.
Also, I’m really really passionate about the industry that the startup is in.

Bruh. How do you give advice to someone with that attitude?
