    I like to work. I enjoy building things; if we lived in a post-scarcity Star Trek world, I would still be in construction.

    The problem I have is that we don’t live in that world, and most companies don’t want to pay me enough to live comfortably, so when I’m applying for jobs, I have to pass over most of them

      I do too. However work is still not the goal, the excitement that I find from parts of it is the goal. And without compensation I would not work for the man but myself.
