It however can buy other things, comfort, security, even freedom. > Why not find a job that's fun and fulfilling? Making money doesn't mean that it is not fun or fulfilling either. Some people also get value in their life from working hard. Working at a FAANG for example, you might work on a project used by millions if not billions of people, some people would find a sense of achievement in that.
