    I mean it’s pretty obvious that people don’t tend to stop working.

    All you have to do is look at groups of people who either don’t need income. Take a look at retired people for example, and you see many of them doing something productive with at least part of their time.

    They may choose to do things that aren’t a paid job, like childcare for grand children, taking care of a home, or volunteering, but those are still work in my opinion.

    Hell my own grandmother retired from being a grocery cashier for 40 years, then got bored and went back to work for another 5 years because she liked being social (it was a smaller town where she knew most of the customers).
