You’re projecting it from where you’re sitting. Try to take a moment and imagine those who toil in low-paying, manual work and let me know if they’re pursuing “happiness”. The high-paying tech sector is just that, one sector of the economy – not everyone gets paid a hefty 6-figure salary for spending half their day at work surfing the internet.
Oh…many people people I know that quit (retired from) their jobs are not sitting around at home. They all do enjoy the fact that their vacations can be as long as they want it to be and they can extend it on a whim and don’t have to worry a thing….while pursuing their happiness.
