This world woks by a set of rules. Rules are necessary to keep order, and the world should always be kept in a state of order. It's the most ideal state, after all.
The way I see it, there are three kinds of people in this world.
First there are the masses. They follow the rules and keep the world in order. They do only as they are told, a mindless puppet-society acting out a wonderfully ridiculous farce atop a grand stage.
Next there are the "higher-ups". They make the rules, and do as they please. They make sure the world is kept in order, and ensure that they have control over the masses.
And lastly there are the clever minority. They break the rules and find ways around them. They are experts at finding the loopholes and bending the rules as they please. Cruising along at their own luxurious pace, these people live the good life without even needing to put in any effort at all.
Naturally, I fit into the third category. By using and abusing a system set in place, I am an essential part of the society machine. A system exists to be used after all, and so I use it as I please. I don't have to work. I don't have to live a meaningless puppet-life, as my comfortable life is guaranteed no matter what I do.
Surely that's a much better life than working in some dead-end job you hate, day-in and day-out, spiraling slowly into depression before laying on your death bed contemplating all the regrets of your life. Wouldn't you agree?

This image sums up my feelings on that part quite accurately.
I used to go with the flow, until it became stagnant. Now I create my own flow, and go with that instead. I used to have countless regrets about the life I've lived 'till now. If you gave me one chance to go back and re-do my life, I would have taken it without a second thought.
But now? Now I'm happier than I've ever been. I have everything I could ever want or need, and more. And I didn't have to work to attain any of it. I am literally set for life, all that's left is to cruise along at my own comfortable pace. This world's system may be corrupt and broken, but it's because of that corruption that I can live like this. You might ask me if I feel guilty about abusing the system in this way. I might once have, but now I can only see it as a blessing.
