Sure, if you can survive the period between the obsolescence of human labor and the achievement of post-scarcity. Do you really think that period of time is zero, or that the first version of a post-scarcity economy will be able to carry the current population? No, such a transition implies a brutish end for most.

Sorry, I was being too subtle. When nobody has a job anymore and the economy is crashing, I'm looking forward to moving into the country and becoming self sufficient.

We'll be very very poor, and it will be really hard work, but I'm looking forward to the challenge.

Human labour will never be obsolete because you can always work for yourself.

Post scarcity will never happen unless some benevolent AI god chooses to give it to us like in a Banks novel.
