I tend to get downvoted on this opinion but people like working at least to some extent. The folks with high flying jobs generally enjoy them, people on benefits with no work are depressed. Even rich people with millions but no purpose are depressed (sort of example - maybe mot the best eg. https://news.sky.com/story/steve-bing-ex-partner-of-liz-hurl...)

I think the answer is to make work more fun and decouple it from financial security such that you still get housing and food even if the poetry or whatever doesn't sell.
