>>They aren’t sitting at home reading my writing on Medium either, I can attest.

Ahem... some of us are. :-)

That said, I don't hire anyone to fetch groceries, do laundry, houseclean, or anything like that but I've recently retired so similarly now have quite a few 'extra' hours. I'm mostly using them to learn new things, practice photography, make a dent in the stack of books I've been meaning to read. Oh, and reading your stuff fits in there as well.
