Working for a Lifestyle: Worldbuilding
Jun. 2nd, 2009 09:15 amCodify working until retirement, where one can retire at any time and live at a bare minimum (dole, but for apartments, food, trips, etc). Choose a living level? Can always go back to work at any time--but might need to have a rejuvenatory surgery to get done. Is this a terraforming situation?
Inspiration: From "Let's Build a World" panel at Wiscon.
Potential: High.
Notes: This is more worldbuilding babble than anything else. Probably main character would be person who has chosen to work his entire life, getting him up to a pretty damn elevated level of society. What sorts of dissociation would result from the culture shock?
