[quote=Anonymous]I actually have several friends and acquaintances who have very large trusts. Not one of them does nothing all day and they didn't raise their children to feel they need breaks from the luxury of studying for 4 years at an elite college. I have even more friends who are self-made multi millionaires and all of them are engaged in a project or job that occupies them full-time, even if it's unpaid work. (Lots of friends who made their fortune in Silicon Valley and now spend their time giving away that money to causes they care about.)

In a city like DC, the young people that move here for careers are generally highly motivated overachievers. On the non-profit and advocacy sectors, many of those people would do what they do (albeit perhaps not starting at 9am every morning) even if they didn't need the money. And they definitely work for less money than they could earn over in the private sector. In general, these types of people won't find a person without a life purpose, or even interested in figuring out what their purpose is, to be appealing. [/quote]
