Watching the video, I also thought about another contrast between going solo and the corporate 9-5. In corporate, there's seems to be these varying degrees of "keeping up with the jones's" where you have to keep up with certain financial standards whether or not it's something you really value. Going solo, there tends to be more acceptance in variation. If you want to be a minimalist, go for it. If you want to more for yourself, go for it. You can do as much or as little as you want. You don't have to join the country club or buy the new car because your coworkers did. But if you want to, that's cool too.
