[In a post-scarcity system, money isn't a thing. Instead, the goal is generally to increase one's reputation. How trustworthy are you? Do people seek you out to solve problems? Do you focus on one thing you want to to get really good at it regardless of reputation, or do you focus on a few things to bump your reputation?](2020-04-26-
