You’d think striking it suddenly rich would be the ultimate ticket to freedom. Without money worries, the world would be your oyster. Perhaps you’d champion a worthy cause, or indulge a sporting passion, but work? Surely not. However, remaining gainfully employed after sudden wealth is more common than you’d think. After all, there are numerous high-profile billionaires who haven’t called it quits despite possessing the luxury to retire, including some of the world’s top chief executives, such as Amazon’s Jeff Bezos and Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg.
But it turns out, the suddenly rich who aren’t running companies are also loathe to quit, even though they have plenty of money. That could be, in part, because the link between salary and job satisfaction is very weak.

Hikis and neets exist because society is broken. Its certainly why I became one for a while.

That might be true for some of them, but countless others genuinely don't like interacting with others and would rather do other things.

They don't like interacting in person because people are shit and everyone's a fucking asshole, because society raised them that way. They get all their interaction online, like in MMOs and irc, where people aren't all such fucking pricks.
