I think you’ll be surprised at how many in the upper group either want to keep their seat, or don’t mind working 10% fewer days a month. The Stock market has been pretty good the last 10 years, and most of the 60+ people I flew With were pretty squared away financially. The old trope of four divorces, an airplane and a boat seems less common.

I also think there are a lot of people in the lower group who categorically distrust management and view this not as working less, but working for less. To me that is an important difference, but not to others
