    The context of this question is a resource-based economy, which "is a holistic socio-economic system in which all goods and services are available without the use of money, credits, barter or any other system of debt or servitude." As such, would you continue to perform your current job(s) for no money, credit, or favors?

    Please elaborate in the comments section. For example, I work part-time for a major computer manufacturer in their retail division, and I also work as a freelance video editor. Assuming that the manufacturer would continue to make computers, I might "work" several hours per day to help ensure that their technology benefits the greatest number of people. Furthermore, I would probably continue to edit videos that would entertain and educate people.

    How about you? Would you be willing to train in another field (for no cost)? Thank you for your time.

    FYI;

    There is an organization that does this. It is called the US military service. They pay less than minimum wage for extraordanary performance. Thy do things most people will never even imagine. They go beyond human ability and comprehension, and they work massive hours to complete missions that may seem impossible. And why have you not heard about it? Because anyone who serves and sacrifices so much for so little will not relate to anyone who has not made those kinds of sacrifices. You have no clue about what some people do for the USA.
