>Of course you're going to find someone who wants to work. In those cases, the money is second to the actual stuff being done. It's most likely a hobby or something that they enjoy greatly, and probably would do for free. Yes, that's the type of people the article is talking about. A good example is somebody like Apple's Jony Ive with a net worth of ~$130 million[1]. He doesn't have to work another day in his life, and yet he still does. And he's not just working every day remotely from home in some ceremonial role. He still goes to the Apple office and is actively engaged with leading the design teams. His "hobby" seems to be designing materials into products millions of consumers will like. He happens to express that hobby at the Apple office instead of his hoe garage. If you walked up to him and told him he's only continuing to work because he's brainwashed from Puritanical Stockholm Syndrome, I think'd he'd rightfully feel insulted. We can acknowledge that you wouldn't do systems network engineering if you didn't have to work for money but that's not Jony Ive's situation. For him, hobby==work.
