Reminder that you don't have to do anything at all in life, and these who day otherwise are wrong.

Well, one thing you should do in life is read the text you've written and checking for errors.

In fact I strive to do as little as possible. I only work to pay the bills. If I could luck upon a comfortable enough nest egg I would quit working immediately and just play games the rest of my life (video & board, solo and with friends/family).

Hell, I may end up contributing more to society that way since I enjoy dabbling in video game design but don't have enough time to actually work towards anything I could release. If I had time, maybe I'd actually create something for a wider audience rather than whatever minor contribution I have at work.
