Well, I really love flying, but despite that, I will never live to work. However, flying isn't really work for me.. It's kinda like a hobby that I (hopefully will) get paid for.
As Thoreau once said, "There is no more fatal blunderer than he who consumes the greater part of his life getting his living."
At this point in my life, I believe in only working enough to satisfy my basic needs and to fund my various hobbies. I could be perfectly happy as a millionaire with no job
