Question: Answer the question: Would you rather (a) Earn less money and do more-meaningful work or (b) Earn more money and do less-meaningful work? Why did

  1. Answer the question: Would you rather (a) Earn less money and do more-meaningful work or (b) Earn more money and do less-meaningful work? Why did you choose the option that you chose?
  2. Now, let's talk about an extreme situation: Would you work at a job where you do nothing during your work hours (8 hours a day, 5 days a week) yet you make $200,000/year?
    • Let's define what I mean by "nothing":
      • You must go into work and be at the office for 8 hours a day, 5 days a week (no working from home! the pandemic will end at some point!)
      • You can fill this time with various non-monetary tasks like playing games, reading a book, or scrolling social media. But you can't do actual work (you boss won't even give you a project to work on!), and you can't do a separate side hustle during work hours.
    • If you say yes, why and what do you see yourself doing during work hours?
    • If you say no, why not and what do you see yourself doing instead?
