Yes, that's the reason why we are having this discussion, and the point of TFA. Some people think one should work for as long and as hard as possible in order to maximize their revenue. Others think that once their basic needs are covered, doing more work is pointless. This difference has existed for a long time. It's discussed at length in Max Weber's Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism for example, which has funny things to say about the philosophy developed in Ben Franklin's autobiography.
