I am curious as to why you were working 70 hours a week? Because the job was so satisfying that you couldn't get enough? Or you didn't have enough money? Did you feel the exchange of your time for money was worth it?

I think long hours often happens out of habit and peer pressure and not having enough free time to realize you want more free time. I suspect the world will do just fine if you were to take some time off...

Sounds as if you've found a counterprogram that satisfies you...if so, that is good...there is no reason to enable the system to abuse you, if they do abuse you, you must counterprogram...reset your own initial conditions....just like the system is attempting to do......

People will change their behaviour in the 80-99% income group
ROTF.. right when those folks stop wanting Mercs and Beemers and more and more stuff.. I won't hold my breath for that.. That group in general measures itself by how much stuff it has accumulated not by how much it has experienced (my preference) That is their weakness and why they are just as easily controlled as the 80%.. they are blind..

OTOH I hope you are right.. but I believe that you are wrong.. I would be happy to be wrong on this one..
