Why dedicate all your life to making money? All these "productivity" things, working 20 hours each day. To show others that you are not "loser"?

  If I may play devil's advocate: 1. to retire early 2. if you are in america, to ensure you can afford to live someplace where the schools are good for your kids. A sad state of affairs but it is what it is. 3. assuming you enjoy your work, to make some positive difference in the world before you inevitably die. 4. if you do not enjoy your work, then so you can get your hateful work done sooner, and then have time to do what you actually want to do.

    But why even give birth to kids? To doom them into the same miserable life of working 20 hours a day?

      It's not for everyone, that's true. Some of us want to experience the joy of nourishing a new life, even if it's ungodly expensive.

  Money can be exchanged for goods and services.

    Goods and services to consume while sleeping? All wake time is dedicated to work.

      You get to keep some of the money when you stop working.
