At one time, I learnt to live with boredom. I felt it was refreshing to not keep doing something to get rid of that boredom. It got me somewhat creative also, which i loved. But when i started hating what i do with my work, I started feeling like the remaining time apart from work is way too important to "waste" on just being bored. I slightly understand what OP means, when he says all things he held quite close like games and creating a game, were now not as interesting as it used to be. I am also going through that. I end up playing games and doing something out of compulsion of "not wasting the precious free time", and end up getting bored of them too. I dont know if it is exactly the problem OP is facing though. Your first paragraph doesnt even apply to me. I am very much in the beginning stages of my pursuit for wealth and the journey looks like it will be mindnumbingly boring, and I am terrified where I am going to end up in this way.
