    Honestly, if all of my wants and needs were taken care of, I would still be a welder and work. I love what I do and take immense pride in my work. I even bought my own welding machine and setup to do it at home in my off hours.

Not to say it wouldn’t still exist to an extent but there’s a lot to be said of using money to make someone feel trapped.
