As someone who is not from the west or a rich company, I always wonder how can westerns afford "search of a new adventure" in terms of time and money. I think a big contributor to inability to do something like that is that I wake up go to work, return home rest a bit, go to sleep and repeat. I always wonder how can someone break out of this cycle if they are too tired after work.
