But it’s “work to live” not just survive. You spend the rest of the time on living. Whether that’s fishing, hunting, crocheting, watching football, playing games, or something else. Enough money to do what you want to.
Yeah, that’s what we all do, we just work all day then we come home and go hunting, fishing, kayaking, trekking through the desert, that’s how things work, and thank god they do right.
I interpret work to live as the reason I work is to live. That implies working is necessary to live. Which is simply not true in our modern day society. Some people don’t have to work.
I could see how someone could easily misinterpret “work to live” as deriving their sense of self of life’s purpose from their job. That is the opposite of what is meant by it. It is so close semantically to the exact opposite philosophy of “living to work”.
Working to survive, on the other hand, implies that your only there because you are forced to be to survive.
Ah, I see what you mean. Work to survive makes more sense to me as a term for that than work to live, but to each their own.
