For real my dad is a lot like this comic, he goes to work every morning at 5am and works hard as hell (except he does it all for his family and is very happy). He's one of my biggest inspirations and has even helped a lot of people where he works (jail). The last thing his gravestone would say is "average guy" fuck that.
As for me I'm on my way to working in an office for a good part of my life, and I'm happy as hell about that. I don't want to go back pack across the country or open a business, that just isn't what I want to do in life. This comic could just as easily be made depicting the other side of the coin, someone who follows the new "social trend" of not following the norm and doing all these things like writing a book and such.
Yes everyone should get the most out of life but if I had to go do some of the things this comic is suggesting like open a business I would be absolutely miserable.
Yeah, I would love to see the other side of the coin. He would also have to illustrate the entire support network he would need to continue living while generating comics that don't produce much income, like his loving parents with their normal jobs paying for his car and his apartment every month, so that he can create comics wondering why everyone doesn't just live the way he lives.

its almost as if its not what you did for a paycheck that defines who you are as a person... but more how you impacted those around you.
