If someone offered me a lifetime income where I didn't have to work, I would take it, no questions asked. I would do something with my life but it would be something that would enrich my own life and not necessarily some charity effort to do something for those less fortunate than I am. Because I love art I think I would take art instruction, go to gallery shows, build friendships and connections with artists, creative people, etc. and if I had a lifetime of doing that, it would be a rich and fulfilling life for me.
Actually my company closed shop and gave me a one year severance package so this is exactly what I did for one year. It was heaven and I wouldn't have minded doing it for some more but I had to go back into the work world.
So the fact that Kate doesn't work, doesn't provide enough detail on her character or lack of character for me to judge. Some people do, some people don't.
