Abstract

Working is one of the most basic activities of our lives. It is a way to earn money, and consuming commodities that are purchased with that money can often lead to happiness. Traditional neoclassical economics assumes that people prefer leisure time to working time, and that people work to obtain the money, which is necessary for consumption, and that their utility increases as consumption increases. Following this, people maximize their utility by balancing leisure and work.
