Not OP and I don't 100% agree with the grandparent post, but work to live is a privilege. Do it consistently when you can't afford or be entitled to it, find yourself out.
- rramadass 2y ago> work to live is a privilege I have seen extreme poverty (in India) and materialistic decadence both in the US and India and can assure you that while it is true in some contexts it is false in many others. This is why in India (and i am sure in many other poorer countries) you have various govt. schemes like UBI (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_basic_income_in_India https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_basic_income_in_Indi...), UHC (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Healthcare_in_India https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Healthcare_in_India) etc. to make sure that "Live to Work" does not become the norm. In the context of Morrison's advice, she is not talking about the above but a far more fundamental mindset i.e. keep your Life and Job separate in your head and realize that your Real Life is with your Family/Friends/Society.
