what would you rather?

not work but get paid the same as minimum pay but have all the time to do whatever you want, do side hustles, enjoy life ect.
or
work a 9-5 job to earn 30-50% more salary

i know it might sound retarded but i want to see peoples thoughts on this as a lot of people would call the not working but earning money person as "lazy" which is insane to say

FUCK THE RAT RACE!

to be more specific not working in means of "passive income"

work as long as there is some level of achievement. if there is no achievement then obviously dial it back to the bare minimum. which is exactly what our system is doing now. when only the top 10% can afford achievement the bottom 90% is essentially stagnation which will lead to people seeking alternative methods of survival.

>enjoy life ect.
how exactly? being broke sucks, you cant do any cool hobbies. no watching videos and shitposting is not a cool hobby.
how will you afford a bunch of protein, etc?
all of your friends are going to be burnouts, thats enjoyable?

Well, working is great. You can do work without being someone's employim. So, when you say "not working" do you mean not doing any work at all? Or, do you mean not working for others? Because, I can make more money than 90% of wagies by working for myself.

I would love to get mail-money, but the problem with just getting minimum pay for me is I would be taking a massive pay cut.
I already work a 9-5 job, so getting a 30-50% raise would be fucking massive. with that level of pay raise I would be pulling in 50-70 dollars an hour. There is no way I am just going to sit on my ass when that is on the table for the same level of work I am already doing.

If everyone earns passive income then that just drives up the prices, except you end up paying more in taxes in the long run since goods are more expensive. That's basic economics

Not work
I haven't had a job for over a month and it is chill. But I've saved up enough of a nest egg to be fine. I am gambling a lot of it away and going to school for a career change. I just hope it's not a mistake.

If you aren't going to school for a hard trade, or something that is going to require physical work, you fucked up. AI is going to rape the computer using workforce, and the only hope if you are in training now, is to get into a physical engineering trade.

>t. electrician who has been in the trade for 12 years.

Why get mad? Lol

"When, in our civilized Europe, we would find a trace of the native beauty of man, we must go seek it in the nations where economic prejudices have not yet uprooted the hatred of work... The Greeks in their era of greatness had only contempt for work: their slaves alone were permitted to labor: the free man knew only exercises for the body and mind... The philosophers of antiquity taught contempt for work, that degradation of the free man, the poets sang of idleness, that gift from the Gods."[22]And so he says "Proletarians, brutalized by the dogma of work, listen to the voice of these philosophers, which has been concealed from you with jealous care: A citizen who gives his labor for money degrades himself to the rank of slaves." (The last sentence paraphrasingCicero.[12])
