I'd argue that you are thinking and/or discussing this in the wrong terms. You have to do something. If you're doing what you want it's not really work even if it is. Right around your age I reached a point where I didn't have to work. I moved to the beach in Costa Rica, I travelled and it was fun. Fairly quickly I realized that would not sustain my interest for very long. I taught myself to code and I am pursuing a startup idea I believe in. It doesn't feel like work. It's the most work I've ever done in my life. I suggest finding how you want to spend your time, and why, and go do that. Then, even the things that you hate doing aren't work because they serve a purpose in the bigger picture of your life.
