"Jobs are a means, not the ends in themselves. People work to live better, to put food on the shelves. Real growth means production of what people demand." [Liberalism at its finest](https://youtu.be/GTQnarzmTOc?si=oAIozvkIbgrS3k_h)

The ideal would be spending your time in the way you would if you had no resource constraints.

Of course, that's a utopian pipedream. However, if you can get closer to that by figuring out how to get paid for what you wanted to do anyway, then that's a huge quality of life win.

My summary of this post is that we work in order to maximize our quality of life, not our income.
