Shitty as fuck deal, no way any healthy person would take that bullshit.


Why not?
I'm healthy, 24, and will probably end up living in the middle-upper class.
And that guarantees 40h of work per week. Maybe even more. For the next 40 or so years.

Just for the sake of discussion, that's hypothetical 54 thousand hours of work until I'm 50.
Make it 50k, considering all the vacations, downtime without a job and whatnot.
One year has 8760 hours. 5.7 years of nothing but work. At least. Then add all the communte, not being able to do something or travel somewhere because you don't have any more off days and you get your average Joe life. Enjoying the little things and having a couple weeks of free time per year, not counting holidays. Maybe that's for you, but I'm not the enjoy the little things kind of guy.
I don't care that I would have like 15-20 years of free time when I'm 65 because what the fuck can I do at that age? Will probably have like 5 different health issues bothering me and making my life miserable.

Like this, I'd be able to do absolutely anything I want whenever I want to for the duration of my prime years.
And I'd be able to financially take care of everyone I care about. For a couple of generations.

So, wanting to live an average life just because you'd get to 80yo or so is survival instinct kicking in and grasping at straws.
