Never worked a day in my life.
Spend all day studying, reading, gaming and working out. Money is a problem, but it's a small price to pay for not having to work.

Why don't you switch jobs if don't like working all day? There are 2-3 day/week jobs or jobs that are only 3-4 hours a day.

Some further excerpts.
>Come the advent of the public company, and the fruits of labour is divided a million-fold, it’s precious bounty ground down and scattered in the wind.
>The life of a subsistence labourer is marked by fear and anxiety. They chew and quiver, mind in whirling motion, fretting over their next paycheck, their rent, their precious contracts and connections. Spent by the days labour, they sit drained in front of their televisions, vicariously living lives they are denied. Bed at ten o’clock, alarm at six; at eight they leave for work; at nine they arrive; from nine to five they work, taking a break to sustain their bodily function at twelve thirty; from five to six they travel home; prepare and eat dinner at seven; from seven to ten they rest their drained body and mind in front of mindless entertainment; bed at ten o’clock, alarm at six. The wage labourer lives a life stricter than the monk at the monastery, but thinks himself in an abundance of freedom. Freedom to choose his slave ship, which collar he wears, the colour of his chains—that is the freedom of the wage labourer. Though unseen, the heavy-hand of the market grips man by the nape, forcing him to labour cradle to grave; a buzzing bee in a grumbling hive with no queen.
>The life of a NEET is marked by freedom and happiness. He lives a humble life in the dignity of poverty, wanting for nothing and asking for nothing. Free to rise and rest at any hour, to portion his time however he pleases. In his repose he applies himself to his passions and interests. But it is a mistake to think him idle. The NEET labours, but not for wages; the NEET labours, but not for subsistence; the NEET labours, but his labour is free. Free to pursue whatever he pleases, free to master any subject no matter its esteem—it needs only have value to him. It is this freedom which affords him a cultivation of character all his own, the pursuit of topics on the frontiers of human understanding. In answering only to his desires, he answers only the limits of his imagination.
>It takes but one-percent of the workforce to feed the other ninety-nine. Machines dance and whirl in tireless procession, freeing further man from manufacture. Beeping computers and simple AI solve sums and order spreadsheets without need of an operator. These Tripods of Hephaestus service man’s every whim, yet he is still held in bondage by labour; never before has society been so capable of liberation, yet so unwilling. Man lives in the midst of plenty, but still cannot share alike the bounties of nature—the fruit of humanity hangs rotting on the vine.

I play around 40 hours a week while maintaining a 4.0(+) and when I'm done school I'll be able to make enough money that I only need to work 2 days a week. Videogames are fun as fuck and life is about having fun, "being productive" is a meme normies tell themselves to justify wasting their life working some shit job.

What you really need to do is be more efficient with your time, it takes a while but as you become more and more efficient you'll find you can spend 5-6 hours a day gaming and still have a whole day to do other shit.
