I'm a programmer, at work and in my free time, and I reasonably enjoy things I work on. Still, if I had enough money, I would quit practically whichever job there exists on this planet and go work on my own projects (possibly except if I was working for SpaceX or CERN). I would work on open source projects that strive to create a better world, such as Rust, I would study and work on creating AI or at least "smart" systems that could enable humanity to live better by automating agriculture, waste management, electricity generation, ... Unfortunately, any of these things is a multi-year, high-stakes project that I'm in no position to undertake given my current net worth, hence I'm a wage-worker.
