    Maybe it’s because I lucked into a career that I can be content in but I would rather be employed than unemployed even if I was able to sustain myself through my unemployment. I’m happier if I have a job from which I can derive a sense of purpose and duty. If I was a multimillionaire, I would probably either volunteer or still be working.

      Well, working for someone else and working for yourself is different i guess. Drawing cool characters and manga for myself than working for some company making garbage for social media. I don’t consider that 'work 'cuz I love it and have fun. It’s more of a playtime for me. I’m just saying I’d rather be doing that than making ads or editing corporate videos with that jarring background music all day.
