This is a really bad argument. I’ve known a number of very very rich people, and at least one billionaire, and they don’t do anything except work. They would get mad at us for not working 60-80 hour weeks because that’s what they were doing and thought it was normal. The rich just spend their free time also working, so if you’re going on a private jet to the Bahamas, you’re working the whole way there, you’re working while you’re there, you’re working when you leave, etc.

The difference here is that the line isn’t drawn anywhere. They live to work and think you should to, OR they choose a job that allows them to travel and do other things and work at the same time. Pretty much any managerial position can do this, as long as it’s not a people manager position. Any job that is mostly done on a phone or a computer. Any supply or stock ordering position, etc.

Like I said. I know a good number of very very rich people and you do not want to work like them, unless you’re getting paid like them and even then I’d say that’s debatable. I make a good amount of money and I’ll take my vacations away from work please.

When you’re rich enough to not have to work, then what you have is a hobby.
