Maybe it helps being rich, but just as a counter example, my grandfather was never rich. He was a clock-in/clock-out guy and still managed to spend a lot of time with me while I was growing up. He had a lot more patience than most of the "white collar" adults in my life ever did, and taught me lots of useful skills like how to fix a lot of electrical or mechanical things.

Sure it’s possible to do it when you’re not rich. It’s just a lot easier if you are. Like many things in life. :)

"It's better to be young, rich and healthy than old, sick and poor" is probably not the most novel insight worth writing down for the benefit of others.

White collar doesn't mean rich. It means never really clocking out because your time is valuable enough it is worth monetizing every minute of it.
