We wouldn't worry about finding a job if society didn't force us to do so. I'm perfectly capable of filling my time with unpaid activities, but very few of us can imagine a (jobless) future where doing such a thing will result in decent standard of living.

Ah yes, The Star Trek future where Humanity seeks to improve itself.
I'm all for that.

If we are lucky we can enjoy something of that life when we get older but really the philosophy is carpe diem.
The Buddhist philosophies suggest that our reality is a stream (of).
Each day is like a stream or river, one can never dip their (proverbial) foot in the same river twice.
I found a quote:

No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it's not the same river and he's not the same man.

So, my code friend. There is no time like the present to be.
