About 20% of the variance in lifetime earnings can be explained by differences in hours worked…

Perhaps in a vacuum… It is far, far more important to be well liked than to do a good job these days. Hopefully a person can be both well liked and do good work, but the social aspect of any "work" environment is more important.

That's shaky ground.

How can that be true? These days, a lot more work than before is done remotely. It means importance of being liked can only go down.
