[quote=Anonymous]I think humans are designed to work and contribute. Sure, there are other ways to work and contribute without a paying job but I've personally not found volunteering to be satisfying and I've done a fair amount of it (international development, local gov't advisory committees, arts organizations, school boards, community organizations supporting low-income households). So, I work even though I have over $8M and growing with no chance of spending it all. I'm trying to be the "rich aunt" who buys things for my nieces and nephews who are just starting out. I helped my niece buy plates and glasses, pots, knives, sheets, towels, etc. as she moved into her first apartment. I also travel frequently and don't work more than 45-50 hours a week. I don't judge anyone either way, but this is _why_ I still work.[/quote]
