What job you would have been doing if money was not a motivation ?

Even if money wasn’t a motivation, there would still be something known as poverty and suffering, so if I should choose a job, it will still remain something that can keep me independent even if not as wealthy as the big names we all know today.

There’s a saying I always carry in mind. “not all must be rich, but at least independence of a person matters a lot.” Independence that even if you’re not as rich, you won’t be poor either.

And come to think of it, it’s actually possible that every citizen doesn’t have to be poor even if they aren’t as rich as others. Normally this depends on both the country and the citizens, but since it’s up to us, it can still be possible.

Countries like Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, and so on are examples of places that show citizens don’t all need to be rich before living well.

So even if money wasn’t the motivation, I would still choose something that keeps me stable, independent, and far from lack because at the end of the day, a fulfilled life isn’t only about wealth, but about not falling below the point where survival becomes a struggle.

I don't know about your country but in my country, and no offense, but delivery work is classified as manual labor because it doesn't require a degree or experience. All you need is working age and a motorbike. So in my country, only people without degrees or who can't find better jobs do this job.

Moreover, most of them have to work 12-16 hours a day to earn extra money. Rarely does anyone work only 4-8 hours a day and consider it a passion rather than the purpose of making money.

The description doesn't matter here, I know many have finished their degrees and after their office hours, they are delivering and turning on their apps. While there are those who have quit the corporate life and gave delivery a chance because they earn more from it. That is true that many are working 12-16 hours but usually with 8 hours, they're all set and going home depending on how much they have earned.

There are still those people who are looking forward to do their passion even if there's less to no profit of what they do.

Only young and unmarried people work for passion. People with families and big goals will work for money rather than passion.

There are, those who have made it in life and are not motivated with money anymore even they're married and have a family. They've set their lives first and make sure that they still provide for their family.

I'd probably a delivery rider because I own my time and I can do delivery whenever I want to. There's no boss although the platform that I'll use of course is the actual boss but they don't mind if I deliver or not. Because there's no set of schedule when I should be and I can do it in my free time. It's a trending job in my country and people that I've talked about how it goes with the job say the same thing, they're their own boss and they are free to do the job whenever they want and that's why if money isn't the motivation, I think that I'd be one of them.

Yeah, you'd probably be quite in charge of your own time as you would likely choose what time you would want to be available for work. That could help you manage your time as well as prep for other important things. But as to being your own boss, there is someone higher up, meaning, you can actually be let go at any time. If you come to think of it, you actually don't own your time as well as you've just got to respond to new orders when you're on the clock.
If money wasn't a motivating factor, it can be a pretty chill job if you love driving around.

Yeah, the company is still the boss. But being your own boss means here is that you can turn your app on and deliver and receive orders when you just want to deliver at that time. You're free not to deliver if you're not feeling it or you're tired or just simply you're lazy doing it by that time. And that's right, it's a chilling job as you get to travel and meet new people too.

I thought about this for a while now, I assumed I would do something in art, but considering if "money" isn't a situation, then I realized investing into dreams sounds like the best one. Think of it like shark tank, where you are the shark, and you are giving 100k or less to people, if you had a billion dollars, at 100k a piece (which some of them would be lesser) then you would give 10 thousand people 100k to make their dream come true.

Obviously most of them probably will either fail or need more, but many of them also would grow. That is what the world is lacking today, because most people want their own business and have ideas but don't have money, ideas are free so if you give them all 100k to go give it a try, you will probably end up in profit long term due to success of the good ones.

What job you would have been doing if money was not a motivation ?

I would have choosen to teach kids like from 2nd standard to 8th standard. That is a very crucial age for kids which shapes their entire future.

You've clearly chosen a very challenging goal. But from what I've heard from my teaching friends, it's a very difficult craft. Children in grades two through four are still manageable and obedient, but then they become teenagers, and it's very difficult to find common ground with them due to their maximalism and constant adolescent rebelliousness.
By eighth grade, they certainly become more disciplined, but a teacher must still be a psychologist in addition to providing them with lesson materials.

The same entire future of these kids that you would have tried to shape? What for if not for money? Why would those kids want to learn anything if money isn't motivation to their parents and guidance? At the end of the tunnel it is all about the money, the reason why kids are raised to be greater in the future is all about money.

What is great if money isn't involved? Today, children are useless to parents if they aren't making money, the reason why parents raised kids is to turn them into successful kids, so that they can relax at last, the same thing that's reshaping the world as we know it, the same thing that keeps bringing unrest to every humans alive today.

Motivation or no motivation I can't be jobless, because I am the type that hates asking people for anything, it is not some crazy type of ego but the response you would get from people, it's like they have been waiting for century to find one moment they can jump on your ass, I clean my shit up myself and I like it that way.
