You will be lucky to be working only 40 hours (or often 50 hours) a week. Most of my friends work closer to 60 hours a week. Now that kills your work/life balance.
Just WHO are all these people working 60+ hour weeks? What are their occupations?
Investment banker? Take out the 1% chance they might make it all the way to Managing Director/Partner and start raking in 7 figures a year, who'd be willing to work those hours?
Startup founder? Take out the 0.01% chance they might be the next "Draw Something" or Instagram, who'd be willing to work those hours?
People generally don't work harder than their peers purely out of altruism or "passion." Otherwise, socialism wouldn't have failed.
