Oh, fully agreed. It's not like it's 1874 and we pretty much all have a fair amount of leisure relatively speaking. It's just I've noticed a fair number of "great contributors" to human knowledge and civilization appear to have had a lot of trivial things in life taken care of out of the box. As opposed to those who come up scrabbling (who often wind up wealthy but aren't necessarily great contributors in an intellectual sense). The Greek philosophers, Buddha, people like Thomas Jefferson, the people in this article. All some degree of wealth and leisure and other people (initially at least) taking care of the small things for them. There are always the Ben Franklins though so I guess it's not a universal truth. Just kind of makes me wonder what humanity could be if so many people weren't born into a world that required a hustle or die mindset. Meh, probably just a lot more video game screencasts on YouTube:) But maybe not.
