What is the point of working?

Hi, I am a 21-year old student living abroad. I work a part-time job and receive a scholarship, that pays the bills and I can afford pretty much everything I need, including vacations – for some people that could sound like a good life – but it's not for me.

Who even came up with the idea that we do have to work, I might just go live in the forest or go to jail I just don't want to do it anymore.
