I know multiple people who have never worked a day in their lives. They get food stamps, free health care and live in a $300/month apartment subsidized by the state (aka free).

They basically make money buying and selling items occasionally, when they see a deal. That's enough for them to buy all the "luxuries" they want ($5k car, $2k laptop) every couple years.

I think there's a big difference between peoples desires/definition of acceptable and what they put in to obtain them.

Buying and selling items is in fact considered work!
