Don't Be A Wage Slave

By: Leon La Couvée
  • Summary

  • When we first achieve consciousness, most thinking people quickly realize that we are faced with a tremendous conundrum. On the one hand, we grasp that it is our birthright, our natural state, to be free to choose our own path in life; and yet, on the other hand, we understand that liberty, that emancipation, is a distant and perhaps unachievable goal. Everyone needs to have an income to live. The only question is at what price?

  • Episode 82: We have been freed from chattel slavery a very long time ago. People, however, are still not free. Many are wage slaves. But, this is a personal choice. With effort, you can be free -- a hero, not a victim.

    In this episode, I explore the history of slavery and how, despite its abolition, many people still live in a form of self-imposed servitude—wage slavery. I reflect on a frustrating encounter with an unhappy clerk and discuss the power of education, sophistication, and action in breaking free from miserable circumstances. Ultimately, I emphasize personal responsibility, the importance of critical thinking, and the power of small acts of kindness in transforming both our own lives and the lives of others.

From childhood adventures in a pedal car to turning a grocery store trip into a thrilling race, I explore how creativity can transform the mundane.

  • Episode 80: What if you could "throw it all away" and start your life anew? The ideal answer is I would not have to change anything because I am already doing what I love. But this is seldom the case.

    If you won the lottery tomorrow, would your life truly change? In this episode, I explore why so many lottery winners end up back where they started and why real transformation comes from within. True happiness and success require self-development, not just external wealth. I share insights from philosophy, Stoicism, and personal growth—reminding you that if you want to change your life, you must first change yourself. Are you already doing what you love? If not, now is the time to take action. Critical thinking is key. Take care, and see you next time!
