    It’s an old career question. Like if you would sit around fixing old cars you should be a mechanic.

    It’s a silly question though because no one would answer "If I didn’t have to work anymore I’d go around unclogging random folks drains while they complain about how water tastes. " even if they enjoyed being a plumber.

    I’ve had a handful of jobs I found really rewarding and I enjoyed, but not one of them would I do if I want getting paid.

      Gotcha, that makes sense. Well I am a software developer and do enjoy writing code and building out databases, so there is a chance I would still do that for free, but it sure as hell wouldn’t be for a corporation’s profit
