For sure, at least for me I don't have children etc, but fulfilment comes from the things that i want to do and work on in whatever way is intreasting and exciting to me, it's going to be very difficult for that to match exactly with a job, so my best hope is that the work itself is enjoyable enough, pays what i need to do what i want and then fulfilment comes with the things i do outside of work.

If you work at Meta and the Metaverse fails, I personally would not care beyond the immediate impact on my job, the part I had to play amount thousands of people would be of so little importance that I am not really that invested in it, as long as the day to day was enjoyable for me, I liked playing in that world and then i had the projects in my own life that were all on me, i'd be good.
