What is all this daily pain and suffering for if I don't do what I was meant to do? We die eventually... fuck it!

One of my staff does this every day of his life. His roommate works with us as well and confirms it. Dude will game until 10am, then crash for a couple of hours and be into work at 1pm. Rinse and repeat. Five days per week. Rolls out of bed with ten minutes to spare, throws on his uniform and starts walking. I don't know how he survives the lifestyle, but I guess it's working for him.

Definitely unsustainable past a certain age.

I agree with this 100%. Let the kids have their fun while they still can. Life will catch up and they will learn it's not feasible to maintain. They will either adapt or fall behind. If they're doing their work now, no harm.
