This is making me genuinely sad for you LT.

I personally think that IF someone can make money doing what they enjoy, or making a difference in the world, then yes a career can be one of the most important things in life. However, it's not realistic for everyone to have that... so for those who simply have to work doing something they don't get enjoyment out of but need to do to pay the bills... then no, it should not be the major part of their life. It should be something that is required to support the parts of life that they DO enjoy, and they should spend as much time engaging in those other parts of life as possible. A means to an end, and nothing more.

I also feel genuinely sad for people who "don't know what to do with themselves" after they retire. What empty lives they must have had beforehand .
