RE: Are you a slave to your daily grind?
That's why inventors can often do so well. They solve a problem and the more people the problem affects, the more sales you can amass. Ideally working for yourself is what you want in life, but for most it's a dream they can't seem to make come true.
Many people get financially trapped in toxic work place and have little recourse until the find a new job. Which many hard to do. That lottery "supposed" winner telling off his boss is hilarious. I can't remember what movie it came from though.
Very true though, hopefully the future is brighter. But with the greed of the human race I doubt it will any time soon...

I think a lot of jobs are just meant to sustain people instead of making them financially free. I heard that in the 80s people managed to build their own homes and bought their own cars with their 9 to 5, I doubt it's possible these days except you have a business of your own, however it's tough to build a business though.
I didn't find a new job when I was trapped in mine, I worked there for seven years and it was a "hand-to-mouth" experience as I continue to live in lack and want.
Greed is inevitable in life, and the pain of it.
Building a business is rough, I've been there a few times. Every time it's really stressful getting things running and often you don't see a profit for one or two years depending on what business your in. A lot of jobs are paying the absolute minimum and essentially traps employees in a struggle to survive.
Back in the 1980's things were a lot better, you could get a nice job and make decent money to buy a home and save for retirement. Today that's a hard thing to do unless you are in a high paying job sector.
