Not only my basic needs, I also had a strong urge to reproduce - but that would be irresponsible without being able to support the offspring.

When I was younger I always had an insane drive for making money, which translated into tons of business ideas and a true passion for working.

After having kids and after having enough money to buy a house in cash, a lot of that business drive disappeared. I definitely feel like I completed a part of my life. There is still some drive - and it's focused at creating enough value to pay all my expenses: food, entertainment, private school for the kids.

After that is done, I will spend my days working out, growing my kids, cooking, gardening, travelling.

I know society sells the lie you should be working yourself off (possibly for some giant evil corporation), hoarding as much money as possible until you die - but I couldn't care less.

Removing economic incentives would see a steady decline of value creation in society. Stakhanovism was most likely Stalin propaganda.
