Exactly. No one gets to the point of not maintaining basic living standards when they're raised in an environment of excess, stability, and choice. You get to that level when you've either never experienced anything other, or been beaten down enough to realize it's pointless. Hell, I'd go as far as to say every thing living has the drive to get up and at least survive and procreate. They shut down and stop wasting energy when that seems impossible.
