Honestly, I don’t even want to have all that money at once. If just the job market is good enough that I will always be employed and earn a livable wage, that’s what makes it already. It’s a lot about trust in the economy, and knowing that there is a social system that prevents me from starving in case my education becomes worthless at some point.
I feel kinda bad reading this reply because you’re trying so hard to be a good worker in a system that has literally indoctrinated you into being a good worker when the point of the meme is to not worry.
I think it is more about the nature of work in today’s world. I think if we each felt that our day to day labor contributed to a better world where we were taking care of eachother, we would be proud of our labor and have a desire to continue bringing about good things. But, a lot of us don’t see how our work helps the world, or if we do, we don’t share in the reward for doing so.
