I’ve had the ”if you had infinite money" discussion with tons of people and am absolutely floored at the number of people that say they would get a job just to have something to do or to keep from getting bored. I’m like dude I have .003% of the time I want to do all the dumb shit I want to do. I could never in a million years imagine myself being like “yooo I am soooo bored having unlimited free time and money. I’m gonna go apply at the gas station”
I already own more books, movies, music, and video games than I will ever complete before I die, based on current trajectories. Now if I didn’t have to work…
There are two things I cannot imagine.
1: Ever running out of interesting things to do, hobbies to try, books to read, people to meet, or places to visit.
2: Ever having enough money to be able to not work.

This makes me sad… mostly because it describes me perfectly.
