It may have been the case before that people thought hard work brought a better life, but now things have changed
Professor Bobby Duffy worked on the study, and said that millennials have ‘become much more sceptical about prioritising work as they’ve made their way through their career’.
Hard work will let you survive. It won’t get you a good life. A good life is mostly done by luck and happenstance.
a good life is mostly done by living in a place with good social safety-nets, and not being a complete idiot and still messing it up somehow.
the good thing is that the right kind of hard work (meaning hard social labour, not physical) can create social safety nets!

that’s definitely one way to say “luck and happenstance”
