But I do think you can't enjoy life if you don't work. Pain is the seasoning of life. Of course, my life is full of seasoning and nothing else. Both pain and pleasure are necessary. It's just that there's only pain right now, which is the problem. If AI could just handle the economic activities for me so I could have a little bit of 'pleasure,' that would be great. I just want to do the programming I actually enjoy

Oof. Pain may well be the "seasoning of life" but work is not pain. At least, it needn't be. Find a new "work", or at least a new mindset, man.

Of course. Apart from tight deadlines and the damages I'd have to pay if I fail, the work itself is enjoyable

“Work” is not the same as “job that your ability to live is dependent on.”
I can do a lot of work and contribute to society without having a job. In fact, that’s how I think it should be for everyone.
No jobs. Universal income. People doing things they love.

Hmm, I've also worked with professors (from top Korean universities). them hiring me and me getting a degree from them are different things.
Well, I don't believe that just because you work hard, you'll always succeed. Most people just see me as a subordinate worker. Of course, if you come from a wealthy family, it's probably different.

As in, you just want to go back to your comfort zone and not face the realities of life.

I don't want to have a staring contest with reality.

The best is to get on top of it.
