Work is work. However, if you had all the time to do what you love, would you appreciate it more? When I get off work, I like all the time off I get and it makes me feel like I can go back and accomplish more. I don't know what I would do with all the time off. Would I look to have my needs fulfilled some other way? Collect the pay and live like everyone else until you retire. Then, you can fully relax.
