You under estimate that people very much want to build and be part of something lasting and meaningful. Certainly takes its mental toll - its part of the trade off and it certainly isn't for everyone. Its a demanding job. My point is that some people want that and some people want to hang out at the beach - its a personal choice. OP original comment is question why people work so hard - because sometimes to do important things it requires hard work.
