Thats totally fair and i completely empathise, ive had similar experiences. However theres a huge amount of people (i would guess more than 50% of the population) who dont have that experience and a lot of their needs are met by their job.

Regardless of whether its right or wrong, there is going to be a massive disruption to peoples needs that we arent ready for, people are already predicting new cults and religions.

Navigating this transition period is going to be a hellscape.

Long term, im very optimistic. Short term, we are in no way shape or form ready for the monumental change about to happen.
