Working is a primary factor to living a good life. The earlier that you work, the more of a resume you build up for future jobs. Working provides you opportunities in the future.

Depending on the job, working can also help to increase your social circle, making new friends and acquaintances. With the money you earn from work, you can afford the food you want to eat, have more of a choice on where you want to live and help build the foundation of starting a family one day.

While there are many aspects to building a good life, including good mental health, access to adequate food and housing and education, working helps provide the stability to be able to attain all of these things.
