Honestly, many many people feel that way. I have been there most of my working life.

When you don’t make enough to make ends meet, or to do so comfortably, sure, fixing that situation is going to be very important to you.

But once you have what you need to live the life you want, why not simply live the life you want? One of my closest friends has been at google for almost 20 years. He doesn’t want to be promoted because he likes his job and his coworkers.

OTOH if money is your thing, that’s OK too.
