As somebody in a similar situation, with this new information/perspective, what are you going to do about it? Quit your job and have unlimited free time for hobbies/travel/no responsibilities other than significant other/your own health/children (optional)?

Honestly just balancing the Life in WLB a lot more heavily. I think quitting work is too extreme for my situation and not beneficial if your friends are working. For me it means work less extra hours, not getting upset over set back at works, passing up on less invitations from my friends, being less hyper-frugal/cheap, etc...

> passing up on less invitations from my friends

This is obviously a personal anecdote and ultra variable-dependent but my entire elementary school -> middle school -> high school friendbase hang out exclusively in Discord playing video games/watching sporting events digitally instead of in person. I wonder how widespread this is.
