Some people cannot comprehend the way you work so hard. It is not for oneself but for the close people connected to your life. It is just simply be someone as a contributor in the society. Of course, no one likes to be empty handed. The reality check is that no one can give full support in the name of monetary values. It takes a lot of second thought for someone to lend money to you. Personally speaking, I am not that workaholic. I don’t want to be called Mr. Jack. As described, all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. It should be done in balance. I don’t want to be ruled by money. It should be me to rule the money itself. How about you, guys? Are you a workaholic with no balance at all?

@Shavkat over time you come to realize that you have to choose one or the other and money will not bring back the things you missed. no matter how much money make it doesn't make them happy. A gift can't replace your presence. So I thought it was better to be here and make priceless memories with them that money can't buy.

I wouldn't describe myself as an workaholic. I mean whenever the working schedule is over I'm done and I head home

@swissheart If time permits, we can take the time to rest. I do the same thing. If my work is done, it is the sign to tone down myself and prepare for the succeeding days.

I work hard but I know when to stop. At this point in my life, I don't think I should kill myself with working.

I must confess that I work more than normal but not to the point of being a workaholic, work is something i enjoy doing, I get bored doing nothing so i always find things to tinker with. I work more than usual cause i work for myself, i have no boss and ran my own biz.

@louievill I also worked in a company that can manage my time schedule. I am the boss of my own schedule.

@softbabe44 I agree. We can say so many things about being workaholic. Sometimes we don't know the real reason in every individual who choose to be one.

@Shavkat There are many reasons why we are called a workaholic.
