I have an excellent job and have since I was a teenager.
I use my financial means to pretend to have a terrible job. I steal time from my employer to sneak off and play mechanic on my various mechanical toys. When I do a bad job, I hire a real mechanic to come behind me and fix my mistakes. Then I get a little better. I enjoy learning, and when I can, teaching.
But I take issue with one part of your post:
Don't assume the people you interact with are in a lower class. Some of the people you describe are happier than I ever could be, and lead richer lives too. I'd argue that all you have is freedom from financial stress and not much else. I'd put them in a higher class, from what I see here.
Maybe go learn what their secret is. I doubt they'd trade for yours.
