That is not true, if you are forced to do a job that you have no interest for of course you will feel unhappy. Now being forced means on many levels, today in most developed countries you can survive even with basic jobs but you want to have a house of this size, a car of this brand etc etc then you are forced.
But if you find a job not because you want to keep up with your neighbour but the one which you personally see useful and do it with a sense of purpose then you can easily work extra hours and be happy.
- Viliam1234 2y agoThere is a big difference between working when you want to, and working when you have to. Even if you find the most fulfilling job in the world, you may still wish you had more flexible vacation, possibility to work from home, etc. Working extra hours is nice when that is your choice, and it sucks when it means you have no time for things that happen in your personal life. If I had enough money to be "early retired", I would probably still spend most of my days doing something meaningful, but the difference would be that I could take a break any time I would want to, change my focus anytime I would want to, etc. So it would feel completely different from having to follow someone else's rules.
