> People should not work this hard.

True. It is painful to think about people being brought into this world, only to spend their lives worrying about money (or the basic survival in general). As an idea, or a moral maxim, working hard is inherently bad. Except when one enjoys it. But even then they should restrain themselves - just to see if there may be other good things in life.

I don't think Musk worries about money. He seems to be driven by other motives entirely. If it were all about money I suppose he would have retired after selling PayPal.
You're probably correct.

But the problem with money is that once you have some; you want more.
