You can always create more money/value/currency, you cannot create more time. I'm just saying is the stress, and constant complaining really worth the extra money? Is your time, something you cannot get back, really worth an extra thousand bucks a year?

greed

and then he gets hit by a car tomorrow and dies.

So you are saying because countries can create money partank should not accept more money to do a job that stresses him?

Your point makes complete sense.

I only operate on the barter system

I was using that as a simple example. Money never runs out , you can always create more. People assume they're going to live forever and they live like it too. Make 2000 more a year so when he's 65 he can retire with a bit more money , what if he dies at 40? What if all the stress from his current job kills him before can even enjoy the spoils.

If you're making so little that 5% is a thousand bucks then yeah chances are you could really use that thousand bucks and likely wouldn't make anything more elsewhere, lol.

Also, still not how either money or value work. Not sure if you studied at the hogwarts school of business but you act like it's made out of thin air.

What if at 60 he has health issues (not related to work) and he needs money to see a specialist Dr in USA to get treated and live if not he will die, and by working that extra money he gets to live because he can pay for it. Did you think of that? Money can save your life and give you more time rather than spending more time not making money. What if his other job he does stresses him, but he can't pay a vacation to relax, and it just builds up and goes into depression. But if he keeps his job now, with extra vacation, and spend time relaxing and be ready for work when he comes back and lives longer like that.



you can't make (create) money

Explain to me how that's not how money works. I can make more money , i can make a trillion dollars, but even spending 1 million dollars a day i wouldnt be able to spend it all before i die.
