> If you paid me enough I'd probably do it for a week and then retire.

Maybe this means that you don't really like your job? If you had access to the same goods as everyone else around you, more or less, and liked what you are doing, then doing it for a week stops making sense, doesn't it?



If I had millions of dollars I'd stop going to work 5 days a week for a company I don't own, yes. This seems like it'd be true of most people.


For me it would've been ok to work 6/5(better 6/4) for the rest of my life if it actually was something meaningful for the society, and if I had an opportunity to occasionally switch to smth different, and if i got a stable life for it. Even if i didn't like the job with all my heart
